Kerr Reservoir and Philpott Lake projects, Roanoke River Basin Va. and N. C., began the fiscal year with both reservoirs above rule curve. At the beginning of the fiscal year, Kerr Reservoir was at its highest elevation of the year, 313.73 feet, mean sea level, as compared to elevation of 300 for bottom of flood control pool. The reservoir was falling until July 5 when rainfall caused another rise from 311.91 to 312.81 by July 8. The reservoir then began a rapid fall to reach the rule curve on August 24 and then fluctuated near rule curve until September 26. Abnormally heavy rainfall occurred throughout the remainder of the fiscal year causing lake levels to remain above rule curve until mid-May. However, a low elevation for the year of 293.67 feet was reached on January 20 which was 3.7 feet above rule curve. A second high reservoir peak for the year occurred on April 12 at elevation 307.42 feet. The reservoir was about 3.8 feet above rule curve at elevation 302.26 on June 30. Philpott remained very near or much above rule curve for most of the fiscal year. The reservoir was about 1.5 feet above rule curve at the beginning of the year and early in the year rose to the high of the year at 978.68 on July 6. The reservoir gradually fell to near the rule curve by the end of July and fell slightly below rule curve on August 11. Thereafter, due to excessive rainfall, the lake remained to about 5 feet above rule curve. A low elevation for the year occurred on January 19 at elevation 971.61 or about 0.1 foot above rule curve. The lake was at elevation 974.06 on June 30. A minimum stage of 13 feet was provided at Weldon, N. C., during the entire striped bass spawning season. All inflows to Kerr Reservoir and Phipott Lake were controlled without having to spill water over the spillways or sluices. Dump energy was sold at Kerr and Philpott during flood control periods in July, November, December, February, March, April, and May. Gross generation amounts for the year at Kerr and Philpott projects were the highest of record with Kerr generating 783,989,000 kilowatt-hours of electrical energy and Philpott 46,835,450 kilowatt- hours. Consequently, gross revenues were at all tims highs, also. Total cost of functional operation for the fiscal year was $69,677 for John H. Kerr and $16,499 for Philpott. General Investigations 54. SURVEYS. Fiscal year cost was $255,587, of which $51,284 was for navigation studies; $179,470 was for flood control studies; $20,072 for beach erosion studies; and $4,761 for National shoreline study and soil conservation service. 55. COLLECTION AND STUDY OF BASIC DATA. Flood plain information studies, as authorized by Section 206, 1960 Flood Control Act, as amended, comprise compilation and dissemination, upon the request of a State or a political subdivision thereof, of information on floods and flood damages, including identification of areas subject to inundation by floods of various magnitudes and frequencies, and general criteria for guidance of Federal and non-Federal interests and agencies in the use of flood-plain areas; and provide advice '" other Federal agencies and local interests f,, neir use in planning to ameliorate the flood hazard. Total costs for the fiscal year were $183,276. Total costs to June 30, 1973, were $962,771.

The project provides for a stable all-tide channel 10-feet deep and 80-feet wide extending from that depth in Bohicket Creek to a turning basin in the vicinity of the uppermost dock at Rockville, a distance of 1.45 miles. The channel was dredged to a 2-foot overdepth and follows the general alignment of the natural channel. (See Table at End of Chapter for Acts Authorizing Existing Project.) Local cooperation. Fully complied with. * All cost and financial statements for projects are listed at the end of this chapter. All other tables are referenced in text and also appear at the end of this chapter. 7-1 Page 7-6 7-7 7-7 7-7 7-8 7-8 7-9 7-9 7-9 7-9 7-9 7-9 7-9 REPORT OF THE CHIEF OF ENGINEERS, U.S. ARMY 1973 Terminal facilities. There are two marinas located on Adams Creek with docking and fueling facilities. There is also a ship repair yard which has docking and fueling facilities as well as a marine railway. All these facilities are privately owned but are open to all on an equal basis. Existing facilities are considered adequate for present and near future commerce. Operations and results during fiscal year. The pipeline dredge Clinton began work on 26 January 1973 and completed the job on 5 February 1973. A total of 68,831 cubic yards was dredged. Local cooperation was temporarily withdrawn because of objections to location of proposed disposal area. This problem was resolved when deep-water disposal was adopted. Condition at end of fiscal year. Existing project was completed in February 1973. Federal costs to date have been $125,697, including $17,700 for Detailed Project Report. 2. AQUATIC PLANT CONTROL, N.C. AND S.C. Location. The project areas include navigable waters, tributary streams, connecting channels, and other allied waters in the Charleston District. Existing project. The project provides for control and progressive eradication of water- hyacinth, alligatorweed, Eurasian watermilfoil and other obnoxious aquatic plant growths from navigable waters, tributary streams, connecting channels, and other allied waters of the United States, in combined interest of navigation, flood control, drainage, agriculture, fish and wildlife conservation, public health and related purposes, including continued research for development of most effective and economic control measures in cooperation with other Federal and State agencies in accordance with report of Chief of Engineers. The act provides that research and planning cost shall be borne fully by the United States. (See Table at End of Chapter for Acts Authorizing Existing Project.) Local cooperation. Local interests must agree to hold the United States free from damages that may occur from operations performed in connection with this project, and participate to extent of 30 percentof cost of field operations. Requirements are being met in South Carolina. Operations and results during fiscal year. New Work: Chemical control operations were continued by Corps of Engineers personnel in the Little Pee Dee River, Black River, Black Mingo Creek, and North Fork Edisto River. Observations of previously established colonies of alligatorweed flea beetles continued. During the sprng, beetles were not abundant anywhere within the Charleston District and had no obvious effects on the growth of alligatorweed. As the summer progressed, the number of flea beetles increased progressively until locally very dense populations were reached during late summer and early fall. In such areas, the above water portions of some weed mats were completely destroyed. Costs incurred were $3,740 for engineering and $12,790 for operations. Condition at end of fiscal year. Chemical spraying operations have brought approximately 400 acres of alligatorweed under effective control in the five basins cited above. Adaption of biological agents to local climatic conditions should result in additional acreage being brought under control. 3. ATLANTIC INTRACOASTAL WATERWAY BETWEEN NORFOLK, VA., AND ST. JOHNS RIVER, FLA. (CHARLESTON DISTRICT) Location. The project starts on Little River near the North Carolina-South Carolina State line and extends generally south along the coast of South Carolina 62 miles to Winyah Bay: thence 63.5 miles to Charleston; thence 84.5 miles to and including Port Royal Sound; a total of 210 miles. (See U.S. Coast and Geodetic Survey Charts Nos. 835, 836 and 838.) Previous projects. For further details see page 613 of Annual Report for 1932. Existing project. The project provides for a waterway 12 feet deep and not less than 90 feet wide with a branch channel of the same dimensions to McClellanville, and construction of three bridges crossing the waterway in Horry County, South Carolina. (See Table at End of Chapter for Acts Authorizing Existing Project.) Local cooperation. Fully complied with. Terminal facilities. There are rail-water terminals at Georgetown, Charleston, Johns Island and Port Royal, and numerous open-pile wharves mostly for shipping agricultural products, fish, oysters, pulpwood, wood products, and petroleum products. Marinas are located at convenient intervals along the waterway where limited supplies and repair facilities are available for both commercial vessels and pleasure craft. Facilities are considered adequate for existing commerce and recreation requirements. Operations and results during fiscal year. Maintenance: Disposal areas with spillways were constructed by Ware Brothers Construction Company and J. A. Laporte, Inc., July 1972-June 1973, at a cost of $292,034. Maintenance dredging was performed by J. A. Laporte, Inc., August 7-2 CHARLESTON, S.C., DISTRICT 1972-April 1973, removing 2,271,500 cubic yards of material for $1,599,067. Clearing and snagging by the U. S. maintenance vessel Snell and hired labor was performed at a cost of $35,237. Surveys and supervision costs were $291,163. Condition at end of fiscal year. Existing project was completed in 1940; three bridges were completed in 1936. Federal costs of existing project to date have been $7,345,888 for new work and $14,297,152 for maintenance for a total of $21,- 643,040. 4. CHARLESTON HARBOR, S.C. Location.

For further details see page 1808 of Annual Report for 1915; page 579 of Annual Report for 1926 and page 562 of Annual Report for 1938. Existing project. The authorized project provides for a channel 35 feet deep with varying widths from the Atlantic Ocean to the mouth of Goose Creek, a total of 21.9 miles, together with a 35-foot depth by 500-foot width channel via Town Creek. Also, a 10-foot depth by 110-foot width channel on the Mount Pleasant side of the harbor into Shem Creek to U.S. Highway 17 bridge, and a 30-foot anchorage basin in the lower harbor between Castle Pinckney and Fort Moultrie. A 40-foot channel estimated to cost $6,060,000 was authorized to be executed when found necessary in the interests of national defense from the 40-foot contour in Atlantic Ocean to U. S. Naval Base. For further details see page 425 of Annual Report for 1962. (See Table at End of Chapter for Acts Authorizing Existing Project.) Local cooperation. Local interests have fully complied with their responsibility to date but are e' periencing difficulty in securing suitable dislI >a. reas for dredged material for continued future maintenance. Terminal facilities. Piers and slips extend for about 1 mile along the eastern waterfront of the city of Charleston with an additional mile of marginal wharves. The South Carolina State Ports Authority operates 8 piers for fruit, wood, cold storage facilities and general cargo, a grain elevator and a beltline railway which serves the entire Cooper River waterfront. Modern facilities are also at wharves of 7 major petroleum companies including storage tank farms. Modern facilities for marine repairs and servicing are available at Detyens Shipyard, located approximately 10 miles northeast of Charleston on the Wando River. The U.S. Navy Department has modern facilities for construction and maintenance of naval vessels including atomic submarines. Loading docks and storage areas for missile-carrying type vessels have also been constructed and are being operated by the U.S. Navy. For further details see Port Series No. 13, Corps of Engineers. Operations and results during fiscal year. Maintenance: The pipeline dredges Clinton and Hampton Roads performed maintenance dredgin g and dike repairs by contracts during July 1972-April 1973, removing 2,177,400 cubic yards of material for $1,475,473 and $70,936 for diking. The hopper dredges Gerig and Essayons and hired labor performed maintenance dredging in the entrance channel during March-June 1973, removing 1,158,962 cubic yards of material at a cost of $649,706. Surveys and supervision costs were $264,347. An ongoing estaurine values study continued during FY 1973 at a cost of $35,355, under the guidance of an ad hoc work group consisting of agencies possessing expertise in the appropriate environmental disciplines. The study will be used to aid in evaluating the effects of considered waterway modifications and disposal of dredged material on fish and wildlife resources. Further, the study as developed by the committee, addresses three primary areas, namely, physical/chemical, biological and marshlands inventory/evaluation. Contracts have been awarded to various State and Federal agencies to accomplish the required studies. Upon completion, the results of the separate studies will be furnished to the Bureau of Sport Fisheries and Wildlife for evaluation. The conclusions and recommendations of the Bureau will be furnished to the Corps for inclusion in the review of reports on Charleston Harbor. An unsettled claim against previous FY contract for construction of Daniel Island Dike was still being negotiated in FY 1973. Partial payments and Government costs during FY 1973 were $172,033. Condition at end of fiscal year. Jetties protecting the entrance channel across the bar were completed in 1895. The existing project was completed in October 1962, except for the national defense portion. Federal costs under the existing project to date have been $3,328,349 for new work and $35,- 669,613 for maintenance, a total of $38,997,962. 5. COOPER RIVER, CHARLESTON HARBOR, S.C. (ST. STEPHEN PROJECT) Location. Cooper River is located in Charleston and Berkeley Counties, S.C., and empties into the Atlantic Ocean at Charleston. 7-3 REPORT OF THE CHIEF OF ENGINEERS, U.S. ARMY 1973 Existing project. The major cause of the shoaling problem in Charleston Harbor is the diversion of fresh water from the Santee River through Pinopolis Dam into the salt water of Charleston Harbor, causing density currents which trap sediments resulting in a phenomenal rate of deposition. The most practical and economical solution of the shoaling problem is to redivert most of the Santee River waters above Pinopolis Dam back into the lower Santee River through a canal beginning at Lake Moultrie and extending to the Santee River in the vicinity of St. Stephen, South Carolina. The existing project for Cooper River as authorized by the River and Harbor Act (See Table at End of Chapter for Acts Authorizing Existing Projects) provides that the discharge through the existing Pinopolis Hydro Plant be reduced to an average of 3,000 cubic feet per second. This flow would not establish a density current in the harbor. The excess water then impounded in lake Moultrie would be directed through a new canal above St. Stephen, South Carolina, to enter the Santee River at a point well below the Lake Marion Spillway (Wilson Dam). A new hydroelectric facility would be constructed on the new canal where the ground elevations decrease to become swampland adjacent to the Santee River. This plant would replace those features made ineffective at Pinopolis through curtailment of flows. The power production flow of 24,500 cfs at the new powerplant, plus the proposed 3,000 cfs average release planned for Pinopolis, would approximate the existing total Pinopolis flow capacity. The three generators at the new plant would be rated at 28,000 kilowatts each, for a total of 84,- 000 kilowatts. In the interest of fish and wildlife resources of the area, the plan would also provide for construction of a herring lift at the new powerhouse site and a relocated fish hatchery, if found necessary; and a gated structure on the South Santee River for control of salinity in the delta reaches. Estimated cost of the project (1973) is $56,- 000,000, all Federal. (See Table at End of Chapter for Acts Authorizing Existing Project.) Local cooperation. None needed. The gated structure on South Santee, originally thought to be subject to local cooperation is for the purpose of migratory waterfowl which is a federally sponsored program. Operations and results during fiscal year. Advance Engineering and Design Studies were initiated after funds were released in April 1970 and studies continued through FY 73. Engineering and design costs were $328,707; supervision and administration costs were $52,557. Condition at end of fiscal year. The project is in the advanced planning stage. The General Design Memorandum was completed in January 1972 and work is proceeding on schedule on other phases of the project. 6. GEORGETOWN HARBOR, S.C. Location.

Little River enters the Atlantic Ocean at Little River Inlet at the state line and affords the only connection between the Atlantic Intracoastal Waterway and the ocean along 68 miles of coastline between Shallotte, N.C., to Georgetown, S.C. Existing project. The project pro\vides for an entrance channel 12 by 300 feet across the ocean bar; thence a 10 by 90-foot inner channel to the Atlantic Intracoastal Waterway. The entrance channel would be stabilized by jetties extending seaward 3,200) feet and 3,000 feet long on the north and south sides of the inlet, respectively. Estimated costs of the project (1973) is $8,- 545, 0 00 Federal cost and $1, 7 2 5,000 Non-Federal cost ($760,000 contributed funds and $965,000 for lands). Local cooperation. In a letter dated 26 April 1971, the Horry County (South Carolina) Planning and Promotion Commission gave assurances of cooperation. Since certain lands to be furnished by non-Federal interests lie in North Carolina, a letter dated 4 August 1971 has been supplied by the Brunswick County (North Carolina) Commissioners, agreeing to provide to the United States the necessary project lands lying in North Carolina. Terminal facilities. There are seven marinas, numerous private docks, and several public boat ramps located in or near Little River. It is expected that existing facilities will expand and new ones will be added as demands for services exceed current capacity. Operations and results during fiscal year. Apportionment of funds has been withheld until FY 74 when $75,000 of programmed carry-over will be made available. 8. PORT ROYAL HARBOR, S.C. Location.

BEACH EROSION CONTROL UNDER SPECIAL AUTHORIZATION Activities Pursuant to Section 103, Public Law 87-874 (Preauthorization) Work continued on detailed project reports on Garden City Beach (Horry and Georgetown Counties, S.C.) and on Pawlevs Island Beach (Georgetown County, S.C.). Costs incurred during FY 73 were $31,500 on Garden City Beach and $18,709 on Pawlevs Island Beach. Work was completed, except for review by higher authority, on two reconnaissance reports, Isle of Palms and Edisto Beach (both projects in Charleston County, S.C.). $2,500 was spent on each study during the fiscal year. Flood Control 17. YADKIN RIVER, N.C. Location. The river rises on the eastern slope of the Blue Ridge Mountains in western North Carolina, flows generally easterly about 100 miles to the vicinity of Donnaha, North Carolina, thence southeasterly 104 miles to its confluence with Uwharrie River near Badin, North Carolina, where its name changes to Great Pee Dee River. (See U.S. Geological survey map of North Carolina.) Existing project. The Flood Control Act of July 24, 1946, authorized construction of four flood-control dams in the upper Yadkin River Basin, two on the Yadkin River above Wilkesboro, North Carolina, and two on Reddies River, a tributary stream. Studies made subsequent to authorization established the economic advantage of providing needed flood-control storage in only two reservoirs, one on the Reddies and one on the Yadkin. Present planning considers only the two-reservoir plan. Cost for the Yadkin River Reservoir (W. Kerr Scott Dam and Reservoir constructed 1962) and for Reddies River Lake is set forth in Table 7-D. (See Table at End of Chapter for Authorizing Legislation.) Funds of $131,500 were expended on the Reddies River Lake Project for project planning and preparation of a definite project report which was completed in March 1950. An economic restudy of the Reddies River Lake Project was submitted and approved in July 1968. Individual reports on W. Kerr Scott Dam and Reservoir and Reddies River Lake Project follow. 17A. W. KERR SCOTT DAM AND RESERVOIR, YADKIN RIVER, N.C. Location. W. Kerr Scott Dam and Reservoir is on Yadkin River, North Carolina, about 6 miles upstream from Wilkesboro. At full flood-control pool elevation (1075 feet mean sea level), the reservoir extends 15.7 miles upstream to Wilkes-Caldwell County line. Existing project. The project consists of a rolled earthfill dam 1,740 feet long, with top of dam at elevation 1107.5 feet mean sea level, or about 148 feet above streambed elevation; a spillway near the north abutment of the dam in a rock cut with crest elevation 1075; and outlet works consisting of an intake structure, control tower, and a circular concrete conduit 12.25 feet in diameter through the base of the dam near the south abutment. The reservoir has a gross capacity of 153,000 acre-feet of which 112,000 acre-feet are reserved for flood control, 33,000 acre-feet will be used when required for water supply, and 8,000 acre-feet being contained in the minimum pool. (See Table at End of Chapter for Acts Authorizing Existing Project.) Local cooperation. Fully complied with. For details see page 413 of Annual Report for 1963. Operations and results during fiscal year. New Work: Construction of recreation facilities (Code 711) cost $41. Maintenance: Operation and maintenance cost $403,949. During the fiscal year the project had a visitation of 822,572. All recreation facilities continue to be utilized beyond their maximum capabilities during fair weather. Acquisition of additional lands and construction of recreational facilities authorized under the Appalachia Program has resulted in the project having the capability to accommodate approximately 250,000 additional visitors annually. The majority of visitor requirements continues to be for camping and picnicking facilities. On four occasions during FY 73, rainfall over the watershed above the dam was sufficient to produce streamflows that had to be controlled to prevent the occurrence of downstream flood damages. The flood producing the maximum storage occurred in April 1973 when the pool elevation reached 1044.2. This is a rise of 11.2 feet above the normal pool of 1033.0. The remaining three storms occurred in February, March and June and produced pool elevations of 1043.8, 1041.2 and 1042.2, respectively. Estimated flood damages prevented for these four floods is $3,788,000. 7-7 REPORT OF THE CHIEF OF ENGINEERS, U.S. ARMY 1973 Condition at end of fiscal year. The project was commenced in August 1960 and placed in operation for flood control and water storage purposes in February 1963. 17B. REDDIES RIVER LAKE, N.C. Location. Reddies River flows into the Yadkin River near the town of North Wilkesboro, North Carolina, and is a tributary to the Yadkin-Pee Dee River. The authorized lake and damsite are located entirely in Wilkes Coulnty, North Carolinla. Existing project. Reddies River Lake is the setond unit in the authorized plan for the upper Yadkin River Basin. The first unit, W. Kerr Scott Reservoir, is located about 5 miles upstream from the mouth of the Reddies River and was completed in 1962. The Reddies damsite is located on Reddies River at mile 1.7, near the town of North Wilkesboro. Total tributary area above the damsite is 94.5 square miles. Project works contemplate construction of a rolled-earth dam about 165 feet high with a saddle spillway and a gated outlet conduit. The conservation pool will cover about 680 acres and the flood control pool about 1,335 acres. The project was authorized by the Flood Control Act of 1946; however, the project was deferred for restudy in 1950. An economic restudy was submitte( inL FY 69 and approved in FY 70. Preconstruction planning funds were appropriated in LFY 70, but the funds were held in budgetary reserve throughout FY 70. Work began in January 1971 on the General Design Memorandum and Phase I is scheduled for completion in August 1973. The Site Selection Design Memorandum was completed in May 1972 while the Hydrology and Hydraulic Analysis Design Memorandum was completed in March 1973. Phase II General Design Memorandum is scheduled for completion in August 1974. (See Table at End of Chapter for Acts Authorizing Existing Project.) Estimated cost of the project (1973) is $13,- 900,000 of which $2,600,000 is reimbursable for water supply under the Water Supply Act of 1958, and $570,000 for recreation. Local cooperation. The state of North Carolina was requested to reatirm their earlier letters of intent to fulfill the local cooperation requirements necessary for water supply and development of recreation facilities. The state replied favorably in June 1973 concerning local cooperation for recreation. The state's letter of intent for water supply is expected to be received in September 1973. Operations and results during fiscal year. New Work: A public meeting was held in October 1972 to solicit the public's views on this project.

This project covers the entire Altamaha River (including a channel between the river and Darien, Ga.), a length of 137 miles, the lower 139 miles of the Oconee River, and the lower 199 miles of the Ocmulgee River. The Altamaha River has a mean tidal range of 6.4 feet at its mouth which gradually decreases to mile 33 above, where there is no perceptible tidal effect. At Doctortown, mile 59, ordinary floods attain a t of about 10 feet above low water, and extreme floods, a height of about 15 feet above low water. On the Oconee River at Dublin the ordinary fluctuations attain a height of 22 feet, and the extreme fluctuations a height of 32 feet, above low water. On the Ocmulgee River at Macon the ordinary fluctuations attain a height of 15 feet, and the extreme fluctuations a height of 25 feet, above low water. There is no approved estimated cost for improvement or for maintenance. The latest published maps of these rivers are in the following documents: Altamaha River, House Executive Document 283, Fifty-first Congress, second session; Oconee River, House Executive Document 211, Fifty-first Congress, first session; Ocmulgee River, House Executive Document 215, Fifty-first Congress, first session; and Lower Altamaha River and Darien Harbor, Ga., House Document 610, Seventy-seventh Congress, second session. (See Table 8-B for Authorizing Legislation.) Local cooperation. Fully complied with. Terminal facilities. Along these rivers there are numerous natural shore landings which are considered ample for existing commerce. Facilities for recreational boats have been constructed in recent years at several points. Operations and results during fiscal year. Maintenance: Hired labor snagging work was performed by crane barge No. 2 with towboat Tomkins and during periods July 1, 1972 to September 21, 1972 and December 11, 1972 to December 18, 1972, removed 4,651 snags at a cost of $45,407, including inspection and overhead. Other cost incurred, including condition and operation studies, hydrographic surveys, and water pollution and environmental studies, amounted to $16,381. (See Table 8-A for Cost and Financial Statement.) Condition at end of fiscal year. The existing project is such that the percentage of completion cannot be stated. Channel depths have been increased by excavating rock shoals and sandbars, by constructing contraction and bank-protection works, and by closing cutoffs. Navigation has been rendered safer by removing obstructions. Many of the closing dams and contractions and bank-protection works need repairs. To June 30, 1973, costs under the existing project were $60,847 for new work and $1,- 603,153 for maintenance, of which $13,533 were contributed funds, a total of $1,664,000. (See Table 8-A for Cost and Financial Statement.) 2. AQUATIC PLANT CONTROL Location. Navigable waters, tributary streams, connecting channels, and other allied waters in Savannah District. Existing project. The project provides for control and progressive eradication of water- hyacinth, alligatorweed, Eurasian water milfoil, and other obnoxious aquatic plant growths, from navigable waters, tributary streams, connecting channels, and other allied waters of the United States, in the combined interests of navigation, flood control, drainage, agriculture, fish and wildlife conservation, public health, and related purposes, including continued research for development of most effective and economic control measures in cooperation with other Federal and State agencies in accordance with report of Chief of Engineers, House Document 251, 89th Congress, 1st session. The authorizing act provides that research and planning costs shall be borne fully by the United States. (See Table 8-B for Authorizing Legislation.) Local cooperation. Local interests must agree to hold the United States free from damages that may occur from operations performed in connection with this project and participate to the extent of 30 percent of the cost of the program. Requirements are being met. Operations and results during fiscal year. Liaison was continued with the Georgia Game and Fish Commission who maintain surveillance of potential aquatic plant problem areas. Although aquatic plant control work is not imminent, the existing contract with the state of Georgia would permit the initiation of such work, depending on availability of funds. Cost during the fiscal year was $655. (See Table 8-A for Cost and Financial Statement.) 3. ATLANTIC INTRACOASTAL WATERWAY BETWEEN NORFOLK, VA., AND THE ST. JOHNS RIVER, FLA.

Fiscal Year 1973 began with stages 1.6 feet above the 18-foot regulation schedule due to excessive rainfall and inflows that occurred in late June of Fiscal Year 1972. By 10 July the pool had been returned to the 18.0-foot schedule. Stages were basically held to the 18.0-foot schedule through 4 August 1972. Beginning 5 August the Corps of Engineers began lowering Lake Ocklawaha reservoir from 18 feet, m.s.l., to 13 feet under authority granted by Federal Judge Harvey M. Johnsen of Omaha, Nebraska, in a decision issued on 21 July 1972. The drawdown from 18 feet to 13 feet was completed on 25 August and the pool remained at 13 feet through 31 January 1973. Beginning 1 February the Corps of Engineers, acting under a court order issued 12 January by Federal Judge Harvey Johnsen, began raising the reservoir to 18 feet. This action was completed 8 February. The lake was regulated at this elevation for the remainder of the fiscal year. During the fiscal year a total of 1,208,600 AF (acre-feet) of water was discharged through the Rodman Spillway for regulatory purposes. Another 33,500 AF was used for lockages through Buckman Lock. b. Lake Rousseau. This area is normally regulated on a yearly schedule of 27.5 feet by discharging through the Inglis Bypass Spillway, supplemented during periods of excessive inflow, with additional releases through the Inglis Dam Spillway. July through August, Lake Rousseau was held generally at the 27.5-foot elevation. Beginning 1 September, following the discovery of excessive piping occurring under Inglis earth dam, water levels were lowered until corrective action had been taken. Water levels were lowered from 27.5 feet to 24.0 feet between 1 and 10 September. The 24.0-foot elevation held through 8 October. From 8 October, water levels were allowed to fall to a low of 21.8 feet on 11 October, and then rise to 23.0 feet by 15 October. Stages were held at 23.0 feet through 12 December, and then allowed to rise to an elevation of 25.0 feet by 17 December. The 25-foot elevation was held through 8 January. From 8 January through 15 February the pool was allowed to return to its normal operating level of 27.5 feet. It has generally been held, so far as possible, at this elevation for the remainder of the fiscal year. During Fiscal Year 1973, discharge through the Inglis Bypass Spillway totaled 632,200 AF and varied from a low of 51 c.f.s. to a high of 1,660 c.f.s. Inglis Dam discharge totaled 269,000 AF and varied from a low of zero to a high of 2,490 c.f.s. Another 5,690 AF was used for lockage through Inglis Lock. Condition at end of fiscal year.

(The 46-foot and 44-foot depth portions of the project include a 5-foot underkeel clearance. Special studies on the project concluded that a 4-foot underkeel is sufficient. Therefore, a 1-foot overdepth has been placed in an inactive status, resulting in active project depths of 45 and 43 feet, respectively.) The project is about 67 miles long, including 10 miles in Hillsborough River and 3.6 miles in Alafia River. Mean range of tide is 1.3 feet at the lower end of the bay, 1.6 feet at Port Tampa, and 1.8 feet at Tampa. Extreme range is about 3.8 feet at the lower end of the bay and 4.8 feet at Tampa. Strong southwesterly winds raise the water level about 1.5 feet. Strong northerly winds, which usually occur in the winter, lower the water level about 2 feet. Estimated cost of new work (1973) of the 1970 modification to the project is $116,- 200,000 Federal (Corps of Engineers) cost and $1,069,000 non-Federal cost ($700,000 contributed funds and $369,000 other costs).

Assurances of local cooperation for the 1970 authorization have not been received. Terminal facilities. There are 78 commercial piers and wharves at Tampa, including those on Hillsborough River and Old Tampa Bay at Rattlesnake, Florida. Municipal terminals (now called Metroport) on Ybor Channel consist of a slip 778 feet long, 250 feet wide, with a wharf on both sides, of which one has a steel-frame transit shed. Most facilities have railway connections. Municipal terminals, one city wharf, and about 10 privately owned terminals are open to the public. There are 16 commercial oil terminals and 2 privately owned cement storage facilities. In 1967 the Tampa Port Authority completed a 600-head capacity cattle-loading wharf located on the east side of Sparkman Channel. Considerable expansion of the port of Tampa is now underway. Eastern Associated Terminal operates phosphate-loading facilities accommodating barges and ocean vessels on East Bay. The Seaboard Coast Line Railroad began operating their new phosphate elevator, called "Rockport," in July 1970, replacing their facilities at Port Tampa and Seddon Island. River-Gulf Terminal has just completed a new phosphate terminal at Port Sutton located just west of their bulk facility handling potash. International Mineral and Chemical Company also operates a phosphate terminal at Port Sutton. Additional bulk handling and general cargo facilities are planned at Hookers Point where approximately 400 acres of new land have been created by dredging. Upon completion, facilities are expected to be adequate for existing commerce. (See Port Series No. 17, revised 1967.) Operations and results during fiscal year.

The project is located generally within the southeastern eighteen counties of Florida covering an area of about 15,200 square miles. It is comprised of the Upper St. Johns River basin in the northeastern section of project, Kissimmee River basin in central section above the Lake Okeechobee-Everglades area in the central and southwestern section, and the east coast Everglades area in southeastern section. Previous projects. Completed works for control of Lake Okeechobee were included in and constructed under the navigation project for Okeechobee Waterway, Fla. (formerly Caloosahatchee River and Lake Okeechobee drainage areas, Fla.), and under provisions of River and Harbor Acts of July 3, 1930, and August 30, 1935. For further information, see Annual Reports, 1948 and 1949. Existing project. The authorized project is for flood relief and water conservation and provides principally for: an east coast protective levee extending from the Homestead area north to the eastern shore of Lake Okeechobee near the St. Lucie Canal; three conservation areas for water impoundment in the Everglades area west of the east coast protective levee with control structures to effect transfer of water as necessary; local protective works along the lower east coast; encirclement of the Lake Okeechobee agricultural area by levees and canals; enlargement of portions of Miami, North New River, Hillsboro, and West Palm Beach Canals; enlargement of the existing Lake Okeechobee levees and construction of new levees on the northeast and northwest shore of the lake; increased outlet capacity for improved control of Lake Okeechobee; floodway channels in the Kissimmee River basin, with suitable control structures to prevent overdrainage; an interrelated system of canals, levees, pumping stations, and structures in southwest Dade County to control water levels; and facilities for regulating floods in the Upper St. Johns River basin; a system of canals and control structures for gravity drainage of Martin County and distribution of available water supplies to portions of Martin and St. Lucie Counties; and works to improve the supply, distribution, and conservation of water resources in central and southern Florida, including the Lake Okeechobee agricultural area, Everglades National Park, and other related areas. The project will provide water control and protection from recurrence of the devastating floodwaters from the Everglades and local sources, for the highly developed urban area along the lower east coast of Florida and for the productive agricultural areas around Lake Okeechobee (including towns around lake), in the Upper St. Johns and Kissimmee River basins, and in South Dade County. Project also provides for navigation improvements suitable for recreational craft, consisting of locks and channel dredging in the upper Kissimmee and St. Johns River basins. The project includes a total of 1,030 miles of levees, 1,033 miles of canals, 35 pumping plants, 200 floodway control and diversion structures, 62 railroad bridge relocations, and 2 highway bridge relocations. The project also provides that upon completion, local interests assume operation and maintenance of all completed works except levees, channels, locks, and control works for regulation of Lake Okeechobee and the main control structures of conservation areas, which will be operated and maintained by the United States. The principal features of the hurricane gates, constructed under previous projects for Okeechobee Waterway and maintained under existing project since July 1, 1950, are set forth in Table 9-L. See also Table 9-M for principal features of locks and dam. Estimate of cost for new work (1972) is $441,- 000,000 Federal funds and $103,000,000 contributed funds, exclusive of river and harbor funds expended on previous projects. Local interests' costs in reviewing plans and specifications are expected to be $400,000. In addition, estimated cost to local interests of lands, rights-of-way, and relocations is $84,100,000.

In addition to the actual facilities listed above it is necessary under Operation and Maintenance to continue meteorological studies, water level records, stream gaging stations, etc., for proper regulation of the level of Lake Okeechobee and storage of water in Conservation Areas 1, 2, and 3. Regulation. a. General. Fiscal Year 1973 began with 4,- 674,000 acre-feet of water in storage in Lake Okeechobee and the 3 water conservation areas, the 4 major storage areas of the project, and ended with 2,948,000 acre-feet in storage. The Kissimmee Basin Lakes were the only storage areas at or near schedule at the end of this fiscal year. Rainfall was again well below normal for the entire project area. Below normal rainfall has now occurred 10 out of the last 12 years over a large portion of central and southern Florida. See table 9-P for average annual rainfalls over Lake Okeechobee for Fiscal Years 1962 through 1973. In December 1972 a meeting was held between the Corps of Engineers, Central and Southern Florida Flood Control District, and the National Park Service to establish a mutually agreeable set of criteria for establishing when a "drought" exists, at which time deliveries to the Everglades National Park would be restricted below the mmimum monthly amounts specified under Public Law 91-282. At that time it was agreed, in essence, that restrictions on water use to all users including the Everglades National Park will be imposed across the board when: (1) Lake Okeechobee stage falls to 11.5 feet, m.s.l., or (2) when a forecast shows that Lake Okeechobee stage will probably fall to 11.00 feet, m.s.l., on or before 1 May. b. Corps of Engineers (1) Lake Okeechobee. Fiscal Year 1973 began with regulatory releases being made via the Caloosahatchee Canal. These regulatory releases, totaling 12,460 AF (acre-feet), were discontinued early in July as the lake stage dropped slightly below schedule. During July and August stages held around the 14-foot elevation. During September and October stages fell sharply, falling to an elevation of 12.9 feet by the end of October. From November into January the fall slowed, reaching a low of 12.5 feet on 20 January, before beginning to rise. From 20 January through 10 April the lake rose, reaching a high of 13.0 feet on 10 April. From this elevation it again fell, reaching the low for the year, 12.1 feet on 6 June. It ended the fiscal year at elevation of 12.3 feet. Rainfall for the 4-month period July through October totaled 10.7 inches, which was 14.4 inches below the 4-month normal. With Lake Okeechobee at elevation 12.9 feet at the end of October a drought of major proportion was feared. The 12.9-foot stage was 1.25 feet below the lake stage for this date during the Fiscal Year 1971 drought, during which the lake fell to a low elevation of 10.2 feet on 6 June. From November on, however, rainfall was near normal, totaling 22.8 inches. The normal for this period is 24.2 inches. This rainfall along with lower demands, combined with improved runoff from the Kissimmee Basin, prevented a major drought. As the criteria for declaration of a drought, previously described, were not met during Fiscal Year 1973, no restrictions on water use were invoked. During May and June, with Water Conservation Areas 2 and 3 dry, Lake Okeechobee water was used to supply water to portions of the urban lower east coast and the Everglades National Park. Inflow to Lake Okeechobee during Fiscal Year 1973 totaled 1,313,000 AF, with outflows through the agricultural canals totaling 631,500 AF. The net water supply to the lake during Fiscal Year 1973 totaled -83,800 AF. The normal net water supply totaled 1,810,000 AF. During the fiscal year approval was granted to allow the raising of the lower limits of the seasonal regulation schedule for Lake Okeechobee from 13.5 feet to 14.0 feet on a continuing basis until studies are completed permitting the raising of the upper limit of the schedule. This schedule had been approved on an annual basis during several preceding years. 9-22 JACKSONVILLE, FLA., DISTRICT (2) Water Conservation Area No. 1. This area began the fiscal year with water levels above schedule, rose to a peak elevation of 16.0 feet on 7 September, and then receded to a low elevation of 13.2 feet on 25 May. Rainfall over the area was 20.7 inches below normal, as compared to 20.5 inches below normal during Fiscal Year 1971. Regulatory releases from Water Conservation Area No. I discharged through S-10 to Water Conservation Area No. 2A totaled 44,600 AF. The net water supply to Water Conservation Area No. I during Fiscal Year 1973 totaled 159,000 AF, as compared to 249,000 AF during the 1971 Fiscal Year drought. Releases and seepage to the east totaled 185,500 AF during Fiscal Year 1973, as compared to 177,700 during Fiscal Year 1971. (3) Water Conservation Area No. 2A. Regulatory releases were being made from this area also at the beginning of the fiscal year. This regulatory release totaled 53,400 AF and was discontinued in July. With the exception of about 15 days in July, stages were above schedule through 10 September. From this point water levels fell below schedule, ending the fiscal year with the area completely dry. The complete drying of the area was a deliberate action taken by the Central and Southern Florida Flood Control District with the cooperation of the Jacksonville District for the purpose of compacting and oxidizing bottom sediments and arresting plant ;uccession, which was heading toward pond ecology. A hearing was held by the Flood Control District prior to the drawdown period to explain the purpose and plans for the drawdown. Originally, the drawdown period was to extend through May, but was later extended through June for maximum effect. The drawdown officially began 9 February when the Jacksonville District increased discharge through S-11. The Corps had, as far back as December, been withdrawing water from Water Conservation Area No. 2A to help meet deliveries to the Everglades National Park. It is believed that the drying up of Water Conservation Area No. 2A for the purpose stated could be termed successful, or at least partially so. To help meet minimum water deliveries to the Everglades National Park, 49,800 AF of water was withdrawn from Area No. 2A prior to the drawdown period. During the drawdown period 43,500 AF were withdrawn. The net water supply to Water Conservation Area No. 2A during Fiscal Year 1973 totaled 24,110 AF, as compared to 110,800 AF during Fiscal Year 1971. Releases to the east and seepage from Area No. 2A totaled 116,400 AF durng Fiscal Year 1973, as compared to 155,600 AF during Fiscal Year 1971. (4) Water Conservation Area No. 3A. This area, as the other conservation areas, began the fiscal year above schedule. Water levels fluctuated between 9.8 and 10 feet through the 2d of September. From the 2d of September stages receded at an almost uniform rate until all aboveground storage was depleted in April. Rainfall departure from normal totaled -16.65 inches. This compares with the 1971 Fiscal Year departure from normal which totaled -15.46 inches. Additional water had to be brought in from Water Conservation Area No. 2A from December through May to meet Everglades National Park minimum demands. During May and June water was transferred from Lake Okeechobee to Area No. 3A, and from there to the Miami urban area via S-151 and to the Everglades National Park via S-12. Water deliveries to the Everglades National Park totaled 291,000 AF during Fiscal Year 1973. The net water supply to this area during Fiscal Year 1973 totaled -74,500 AF. During 1971 Fiscal Year the net water supply totaled a -163,200 AF. Releases to the east and seepage totaled 337,500 AF, as compared to 382,400 AF during the 1971 Fiscal Year. c. Central and Southern Florida Flood Control District. Project canals, structures, and pumping stations were operated by the Flood Control District in accordance with design criteria to supply irrigation water to the agricultural areas, maintain desirable canal levels, and prevent salinity problems in coastal areas. During the fiscal year about 370,700 AF of water was pumped by the Flood Control District as follows: 120,300 AF to Lake Okeechobee; 119,800 AF to Water Conservation Area No. 1; 28,800 AF to Water Conservation Area No. 2A; 101,800 AF to Water Conservation Area No. 3A. In addition, 353,300 AF was discharged by gravity flow to Water Conservation Areas 2A and 3A. Releases from the conservation areas to the lower east coast for irrigation, for maintaining canal levels, and for salinity control totaled 82,400 AF. Condition at end of fiscal year. The project was about 39 percent complete. Planning for the entire project began in November 1948 and has been continued. For construction completed prior to Fiscal Year 1973, see Annual Reports for 1960-1972. Construction completed under existing project during the fiscal year is set forth in Table 9-Q. All Federally maintained features of the project were generally in good condition at the end of the fiscal year. (For status of work under contract at end of fiscal year see table 9-R.) Total Federal costs under the existing project through June 30, 1973, were $199,240,679 for new work, $7,230,241 for maintenance, and $1,559,461 for operation and care, a total of 9-23 REPORT OF THE CHIEF OF ENGINEERS, U.S. ARMY 1973 $208,030,381.

Total fiscal year cost for entire project, excluding Allatoona Lake, amounts to $28,044,270 for new work and $1,- 683,138 for maintenance. Detailed information on operations and costs applicable to the individual dam projects is presented under their respective project titles elsewhere in this report. Condition at end of fiscal year. Construction was initiated on Carters Dam in April 1962, on Millers Ferry Lock and Dam in April 1963, Claiborne Lock and Dam in May 1965, and Jones Bluff Lock and Dam in March 1966. Maintenance operations on the Alabama River, since authorization of the existing project, have been limited mainly to periodic dredging to restore a 4-foot open-channel depth from the mouth of the river to Wetumpka as provided for under previous projects. Maintenance operations on the Coosa River, which were discontinued in 1950, consisted mainly of the care of Government property at locks and dams constructed under previous projects. These locks and dams have been inoperative for some years and no longer serve any useful purpose. Since all existing locks on the river are inoperative, through navigation on the Coosa River is impossible. Inspections of the lower Alabama River in 1955 indicated a controlling depth of 4 feet from the mouth to Claiborne. Boats drawing 3 feet can usually operate all year; however greater depths are usually available from November to June. (See Table 10-J for developments proposed under existing project and 10-K or fiscal year costs for new work on overall project.) Constructing of Millers Ferry Lock and Dam is essentially complete. 41A. CARTERS LAKE, GA. Location.

Recreational attendance during CY 1972 totaled 2,951,200 recreational user days. Condition at end of fiscal year. Construction was completed in 1963. The lock was opened to navigation in June 1963. The first power generating unit was placed on-the-line in March, the second in May, the third in September, and the fourth in November 1963. 43H. WEST POINT LAKE, CHATTAHOOCHEE RIVER BASIN, GA. AND ALA. Location. The damsite is on the Chattahoochee River 2.8 miles upstream from West Point, Georgia, 201.4 miles above the mouth of the Chattahoochee River, and 309.2 miles above the mouth of the Apalachicola River. At the full power-pool elevation of 635 feet above mean sea level, the reservoir would lie in Troup and Heard Counties, Georgia, and in Chambers and Randolph Counties, Alabama. (See Geological Survey maps of Georgia and Alabama) Existing project. The authorized project is to provide for flood control, power, recreation, fish and wildlife development, and streamflow regulation for downstream navigation. The project provides for a gravity-type concrete dam 896 feet long with earth embankments at either end 1,111 feet long east and 5,243 feet long on the west end. The total length of the dam and spillway will by 7,250 feet. The main dam will consist of a concrete non-overflow section, 185 feet long on the west side and an earth embankment retaining wall on the east side; a gravity concrete spillway 390 feet long, including piers and abutments, with 6 tainter gates, each 50 feet by 41 feet. A monolith intake-powerhouse section and erection bay 321 feet long will be constructed directly west and adjacent to the spillway. At the full power-pool elevation of 635 the reservoir will provide a total storage of 605,000 acre-feet of which 307,000 acre-feet will be usable. During the critical flood season, it is planned to operate the reservoir with maximum power-pool elevation at 625 feet to provide flood storage between elevations 625 and 635. The initial power installation will be 73,375 kilowatts and the ultimate will be 108,375 kilowatts.

Lakes and streams in State of Louisiana. Existing project. Provides for control and progressive eradication of water-hyacinth, alligatorweed, and other obnoxious aquatic plant growth from navigable waters, tributary streams, connecting channels, and other allied waters in North Carolina, South Carolina, Georgia, Florida, Alabama, Mississippi, Louisiana, and Texas, in combined interests of navigation, flood control, drainage, agriculture, fish and wildlife conservation, public health, and related purposes, including continued research for development of most effective and economic control measures. The modification of 1965 provides for comprehensive program for control and progressive eradication of water-hyacinth, alligatorweed, Eurasian water milfoil, and other obnoxious plant growths from navigable waterways, tributary streams, connecting channels, and other allied waters of the United States, in combined interest of navigation, flood control, drainage, agriculture, fish and wildlife conservation, public health, and related purposes, including continued research for development of most effective and economic control measures. Research and planning costs undertaken pursuant to 1965 act shall be borne fully by the United States and shall not be included in costs to be shared by local interests. Local cooperation. Local interests must hold the United States free from claims and participate in project to extent of 30 percent of cost of operations. State of Louisiana, Department of Public Works and Louisiana Wild Life and Fisheries Commission furnished a joint assurance of local cooperation, which was approved April 29 and accepted May 4, 1959. Under provisions of continuing contract, local agencies will perform work in kind, approximating 30 percent of cost of program. Operations and results during fiscal year. Combined efforts by the Corps of Engineers crews and crews of the State of Louisiana, Wild Life and Fisheries Commission, continued against aquatic vegetation problems throughout the state. Water-hyacinth control requires maintenance work in all areas, and persists as the most serious aquatic pest. Control maintenance by the Corps of cleared areas continued in the Calcasieu River area north of Lake Charles, Louisiana, in the Bayou Teche basin south of U. S. Highway 190, including the lakes west of the Atchafalaya Floodway, in the feeder areas of the Port All-. en-Morgan City Route of the GIWW, and in the feeder areas to the GIWW in Coastal Louisiana. Louisiana Wild Life and Fisheries Commission crews continued maintenance efforts in the major lakes and streams of North Louisiana, in the Atchafalaya Floodway, and in the Pearl River basin within Louisiana. In addition, Louisiana Wild Life and Fisheries Commission crews continued work to control water-hyacinths in Toledo 11-2 NEW ORLEANS, LA., DISTRICT Bend Reservoir, under their reimbursable contract, to prevent downstream infestation. The previous year 28,600 acres of water-hyacinths and aligatorweed were destroyed. State of Louisiana crews destroyed 17,830 acres of water- hyacinths and alligatorweed by chemical treatment. Corps of Engineer crews destroyed 10,770 acres of water-hyacinths and alligatorweed by chemical and mechanical methods. The alligatorweed flea beetles (agasicles) overwintered in small numbers in the southern part of the state and following a slow population build up are continuing to reduce the total area of alligatorweed. Initial on-the-field testing of the CO2 Laser for control of water hyacinths was done in October and November and other research efforts continued. Condition at end of fiscal year. Operations under 1958 River and Harbor Act, initiated May 1959, are complete. Operations under 1965 Act were initiated in fiscal year 1968. Waterways are being cleared, then maintained as required. 2. ATCHAFALAYA RIVER AND BAYOUS CHENE, BOEUF, AND BLACK, LA. Location. The improvement is located in the parishes of Assumption, Terrebonne, and St. Mary, La., in the vicinity of Morgan City, along Bayous Chene, Boeuf, and Black, and the Lower Atchafalaya River to the Gulf of Mexico.

Adequate acreage is available for expansion of existing terminals and construction o new terminals along Bayous Chene, Boeuf, and Black, and the Gulf Intracoastal Waterway. Public and private terminals in the project area are adequately connected with rail, water and highway transportation facilities. No additional public wharves are required. Operations and results during fiscal year. Planning funds were made available late in fiscal year 1970. The general design memorandum is presently under review. Condition at end of fiscal year. Construction has not been initiated. 3. ATCHAFALAYA RIVER, MORGAN CITY TO GULF OF MEXICO, LA. Location. Atchafalaya River is an outlet of Red River and controlled flow from Mississippi River. It begins at mouth of Red River, about 4.5 miles west of Old River navigation lock on northern boundary of Pointe Coupee Parish, and flows generally south about 135 miles and empties into Atchafalaya Bay, an inlet of the gulf. Section under improvement is from 20-foot contour in Atchafalaya Bay, 4 miles beyond mouth of Atchafalaya River, to 20-foot contour in Gulf of Mexico. (See Coast and Geodetic Survey Chart 1276, Mississippi River Commission alluvial valley maps, Morgan City, Belle Isle, and Point au Fer 11-3 REPORT OF THE CHIEF OF ENGINEERS, U.S. ARMY 1973 quadrangles, and navigation maps of Gulf Intracoastal Waterway and Atchafalaya River system.) Existing project. A 20- by 200-foot channel from 20-foot contour in Atchafalaya Bay, to 20-foot contour in Gulf of Mexico. Project depth refers to mean low water. Normal range of tide is 10 inches; extreme range, 14 inches; hurricane range, 10 feet. The existing project, prior to the modification of August 1968, was completed at a cost of $501,963. Local cooperation. Fully complied with, except for modification of project in connection with Atchafalaya River and Bayous Chene, Boeuf, and Black, La., which is reported separately. Terminal facilities. At Morgan City there are several small private wharves and two large and three small public ones open for use of all without charge. There are no warehouses needed, as business section is on riverfront and all freight is transferred directly from boats to stores. Facilities considered adequate for existing commerce. Operations and results during fiscal year. Hired labor forces conducted shoaling studies and surveys. The contract dredge George D. Williams restored 8.3 miles of channel to 16-foot depth between stations 0+00 to 443+22 during the period July 23 through September 7, 1972. The contract dredges Natchez and Tom James removed 1,565,536 cubic yards of shoal material for the period May 15 through June 30, 1973. Condition at end of fiscal year.

The contract dredge Holland restored 0.4 miles of channel between mile 3.1 to 2.7 and two miles in the bar channel, during the period December 19, 1972 to January 30, 1973. Condition at end of fiscal year. Construction was initiated in May 1960 and completed in November 1963. 5. BAYOU LAFOURCHE AND LAFOURCHE-JUMP WATERWAY, LA. Location. Prior to 1902 Bayou Lafourche was an outlet of Mississippi River, its head being at Donaldsonville, La., 80 miles above New Orleans. It flows southerly 107 miles to Gulf of Mexico. (See Coast and Geodetic Survey Charts 1116 and 1274; Mississippi River Commission alluvial valley maps; Donaldsonville, White Castle, Napoleonville, Thibodaux, and Lac des Allemands quadrangles; and Geological Survey maps, Houma, Cutoff, Lake Felicity, Mink Bayou, Leeville, and Belle Pass quadrangles.) Previous projects. For details see page 564 of 1963 Annual Report. Existing project. Provides for permanent closure of head of bayou without a lock, a channel 6 feet deep and 60 feet wide from Canal Boulevard in Thibodaux to Lockport, and from Larose to Gulf of Mexico with a jettied entrance at Belle 11-4 NEW ORLEANS, LA., DISTRICT Pass, and the closure of Pass Fourchon. These improvements are about 50.5 miles long, and the modification of July 14, 1960, provides for an additional 66 miles of improvement as follows: a 12- by 125-foot channel, extending from Gulf Intracoastal Waterway at mile 37.2 west of Harvey lock to enter Bayou Lafourche below highway bridge at Leeville at about mile 12; a 12- by 125-foot channel in Bayou Lafourche from point of junction with proposed 12- by 125-foot channel to 12-foot depth contour in gulf; modification and extension of existing jetties from 6- to 12-foot contour, if found advisable to reduce maintenance dredging in the gulf; and a channel 9 by 100 feet in Bayou Lafourche from Leeville to vicinity of lower limits of Golden Meadow; and a 12- by 125-foot channel from Bayou Lafourche at Leeville from point where auxiliary channel connects with Bayou Lafourche through Southwestern Louisiana Canal to and through Bayou Rigaud to connect with enlargement of Bayou Rigaud recommended under project "Barataria Bay Waterway, La." Normal range of tide is 10 inches at mouth and 3 inches at head; from severe rains, 3 to 10 feet at head; from hurricanes, up to 10 feet at mouth. Estimated cost for new work (July 1973) is $9,500,000 Federal, and $4,020,000 non-Federal. In addition, Coast Guard is to provide navigation aids at an estimated cost of $31,000. Excavation of a channel 6 feet deep and 60 feet wide from Thibodaux to Gulf Intracoastal Waterway at Lockport is considered inactive and excluded from foregoing cost estimate. Estimated cost of this portion (July 1973) is $733,000. Local cooperation. Original assurances received and accepted on all items of work in the project. Provisions of PL 91-611 are not applicable, however provisions of PL 91-646 are applicable. Supplemental assurances covering PL 91-646 have been executed by the Jeferson Parish Council and Lafourche Parish Police Jury, however the Louisiana Department of public works have not executed supplemental assurances. Golden Meadow to Gulf: Local agency has conveyed to the United States title to all necessary channel and spoil easements. Leeville to Grand Isle: No action is apparent on this stretch by either the Lafourche Parish Police Jury, the Jefferson Parish Council, the local assurers, or the State of Louisiana, Department of Public Works. Rights-of-way are not available due to multiplicity and other complications of ownership. Auxiliary channel: Terminal facilities. There are numerous private warehouses, wharves, and stiff-leg derricks for handling cane along bayou. At Lockport, Barker Barge Line has a barge wharf with covered shed, and Southern Pacific Railroad maintains a large wharf with covered shed. At Golden Meadow each of the seafood canneries has docking facilities suitable for its needs. Four oil companies have docks at Leeville for transferring production of Leeville oil fields to barges. Facilities considered adequate for existing commerce. Operations and results during fiscal year. New work by hired labor consisted of-general engineering and planning. Maintenance by hired labor consisted of condition and operation studies and channel patrol. Condition at end of fisfal year. Construction of existing project was initiated in fiscal year 1939 and is 16 percent complete. Dredging between Larose, La., and Gulf of Mexico was completed in 1939 and that segment between Lockport and Napoleonville, La., is in an inactive status due to lack of right-of-way and spoil area. Jetties at mouth of Belle Pass were completed in 1939, and later damaged by storm action, which required placement of additional stone adjacent to both sides of steel sheet pile jetties in 1940, and repair and extension of jetties in 1941. During fiscal year 1948 stone jetties were repaired and extended inland about 700 feet from shoreline; and steel sheet pile section was strengthened for about 250 feet gulfward of stone jetties, by placement of stone on both gulf and bayou sides. On May 31, 1949, an automatic tide gage for recording hurricane and storm tides was installed. Modification of July 14, 1960, was initiated in February 1963 and is 12 percent complete, with 12- by 125-foot channel completed in September 1963 from Leeville to 12-foot contour in Gulf of Mexico, the 9- by 100-foot channel completed in August 1966 from Golden Meadow to Leeville, and the 9- by 100-foot channel from Golden Meadow to Leeville completed in August 1966. Total cost of existing project to June 30, 1973, was $2,042,929 of which $1,228,618 was for new work and $814,311 for maintenance. In addition, $75,563 has been expended for rehabilitation (Code 820). The Greater Lafourche Port Commission requested, and was granted a permit to dredge a new channel 20 by 300 feet wide west of the existing channel from mile 0.76 in Bayou Lafourche to the 20-foot depth in the gulf, and to close the existing jettied channel after completion of the new channel. This work was completed in March 1968 and the Port Commission must maintain the channel at no less than 12 by 125 feet. 11-5 REPORT OF THE CHIEF OF ENGINEERS, U.S. ARMY 1973 6. BAYOU TECHE AND VERMILION RIVER, LA. Location. Bayou Teche has its source in Bayou Courtableau, in St. Landry Parish, and flows southeasterly 125 miles to its confluence with lower Atchafalaya River, about 10.5 miles above Morgan City, La. Vermilion River, also called Bayou Vermilion, is formed by junction of Bayous Fusilier and Bourbeau, west of Arnaudville, La., and flows southwesterly 72 miles to western end of Vermilion Bay. Bayou Teche is connected with Vermilion River by Bayou Fusilier at Arnaudville; and by Ruth Canal, an artificial, privately owned, nonnavigable waterway, constructed for diversion of water from Bayou Teche to Vermilion River for rice irrigation. (Coast and Geodetic Survey Charts 1116 and 1277; Mississippi River Commission alluvial valley maps; and Geological Survey maps.) Existing project. A navigable channel 51 miles long and 8 by 80 feet from 8-foot depth contour in Vermilion Bay to Gulf Intracoasta Waterway, thence 9 by 100 feet to head of navigation (mile 52) at Lafayette, La. (fixed bridge at Louisiana State Highway 729, formerly State Highway 1092), with additional enlargement below Abbeville necessary to provide adequate capacity for floodflows; improvement of Vermilion River from Lafayette, La., mile 52, to its junction with lower end of Ruth Canal, mile 57.2 by both widening and deepening to provide a channel 6 by 60 feet, mean gulf level, in order to provide adequate capacity for flood discharges from upper Vermilion River Basin, and also serve irrigation interests by conducting flow of Ruth Canal to lower Vermilion River during rice season. Clearing and enlargement of channel from Ruth Canal to Bayou Fusilier by both widening and deepening to provide a cross section about 50 percent larger than that of existing channel. This Improvement is required in interest of flood control in upper Vermilion basin. Enlargement of channel of Bayou Teche from its head in Bayou Courtableau to a point about 21 miles downstream thereof, by widening and deepening to provide a channel of 35-foot bottom width at minus 2 and minus 3, mean gulf level. Increasing height of Keystone Dam by 3 feet (later revised to 1.5 feet) by installation of a fixed crest spillway. (See individual report for Bayou Teche, La.) In connection with these improvements, the project also provides for replacement of an existing pontoon bridge at Woodlawn over Vermilion River with a vertical-lift structure and lengthening and strengthening approaches to five existing movable bridges over Vermilion River below Lafayette, La., located at Louisiana State Highway 43 at Perry, La.; Southern Pacific Railroad at Abbeville, La.; Louisiana State Highway 25 at Abbeville, La.; Milton, La.; and U.S. Highway 90 (Pinhook bridge) just below Lafayette, La. Similar work on existing fixed spans over nonnavigable streams is provided for on 11 bridges over Bayou Vermilion above Lafayette, La., and three over upper Bayou Teche. New work completed in 1957 cost $2,891,922. Project was reclassified "Operation and Maintenance, General" under category, "Navigation (Locks, Dams, Reservoirs, and Canals)" by authority of Chief of Engineers, April 23, 1956. Local cooperation. Fully complied with for new work. The Lafayette Parish Police Jury gave assurances on 31 August 1970 for maintenance dredging between Flanders and Pinhook Bridges. No further assurance needed. Terminal facilities. Privately-owned, publiclyoperated terminals are located on Bayou Teche at Franklin, Jeanerette, New Iberia, and Arnaudville. Other privately-owned boat landings are located at frequent intervals throughout the bayou and public landing is permitted without charge. Facilities on the Vermilion River include a public wharf and two privately-owned barge landing piers at Abbeville equipped for barge truck transfers of general commodities seven landings for the transfer of petroleum products and several private landings all along the waterway suitable for small craft. The Vermilion Sugar Company maintains a barge slip at its mill. Present facilities are adequate for existing commerce and there is ample space available for construction of more wharfage.

Existing project. Provides for dredging a new 12- by 125-foot channel from Gulf Intracoastal Waterway, mile 161.2 west of Harvey Lock, to 12-foot contour in Gulf of Mexico near Freshwater Bayou, construction of an 84- by 600-foot lock with a depth of 16 feet over sill near Gulf of Mexico; and construction of jetties from shoreline to 6-foot depth contour in Gulf of Mexico, if maintenance dredging of channel without jetties proves to be more expensive than construction and maintenance of jetties. Until such determination has been made, offshore channel should be dredged and maintained to provide a 12- by 250-foot channel. In event jetties are provided, offshore section should then be maintained to 12- by 125-foot project in jettied reach, and 250 feet beyond. Cost of existing project, completed in 1968, except for construction of jetties at a later date, if necessary, was $7,116,224 Federal and a $16,060 cash contribution. Estimated cost of construction of jetties (July 1971) is $3,118,100. Estimated total Federal cost is $10,400,000 (1971) and the total non-Federal cost for the existing project is $171,000. In addition, Coast Guard is to provide navigational aids at an estimated cost of $19,100. Local cooperation. Fully complied with. Terminal facilities. Extensive public and private terminal and transfer facilities do not exist in area, and none would be required for improved channel. Private terminals exist at site of oil and gas operations in area and sufficient private and public wharf facilities are along Gulf Intracoastal Waterway and its connecting waterways. Sites are available along proposed improvement for construction of any additional private and public terminals that might be required for utilization of channel. Operations and results during fiscal year. Maintenance by hired labor consisted of operation and ordinary repairs to lock, and condition and operation studies.

Project also provides for: widening at bends; passing places; mooring basins; locks or guard locks; such railroad bridges over artificial cuts as are necessary; purchase of pipeline dredge; construction and operation of new drainage canals and pumping facilities to restore parish drainage systems where intercepted; construction of movable bridges at Missouri Pacific Railroad and State Highways 31 and 996 (in lieu of State Highway Bridge 31, a tunnel was constructed, and additional cost over estimated cost of bridge was borne by local interests); fixed-trestle bridges for crossing proposed landside drainage canals; lift bridges at Louisiana Highway 168, Port Allen. La., at Texas & Pacific Railway, Port Allen, La., and at Texas & Pacific Railway, Morley, La.; and for annual payments to Board of Commissioners of Port of New Orleans for use of a portion of Inner Harbor navigation canal. Length of waterway within district is 384.1 miles via northerly or Port Allen route, and 299.4 miles via southerly or Harvey Canal route. Normal range of tide, 10 inches; extreme range, 14 inches. A severe storm may cause a high tide of from 6 to 9 feet. Estimated cost for new work, exclusive of amounts expended on previous projects, is $111,913,827 Federal and $18,192,800 non-Federal, divided as follows: Algiers Lock and canal, completed June 1961, $15,895,924 Federal, and $2,185,000 non-Federal; Plaquemine- Morgan City route, completed October 1963, $26,869,372 Federal, and $2,250,000 non-Federal; and remainder of waterway (July 1973), $69,148,531 Federal and $13,757,800 non-Federal, including $43,700,000 Federal and $13,750,000 non-Federal for modification (authorized by Public Law 87-874), October 1962, and $9,980,000 Federal and $7,800 non-Federal for replacement of Vermilion Lock. In addition, the Coast Guard is to provide navigation aids at an estimated cost of $66,000. Construction of bulkheads and jetties at Lake Borgne and Chef Menteur, La., is considered inactive and excluded from foregoing cost estimate. Estimated cost (1956) of this item is $440,000. Construction of a double-leaf bascule, four-lane highway bridge provided for under this project has become unnecessary because portion of project over which bridge was to be constructed was incorporated in project "Mississippi River-Gulf Outlet" which provides for a larger bridge. Bayou Sorrel and Bayou Boeuf Locks were constructed and are being maintained and operated with flood control, Mississippi River and tributaries, funds. Therefore, construction, maintenance, and operation costs are not included in approved estimates referred to heretofore. (See table 1 1-E at end of chapter for locks on Gulf Intracoastal Waterway in New Orleans trict.) Dis- Local cooperation. Algiers lock and canal: All assurances required for construction were furnished. Local agency has failed to convey all fee and easement tracts with acceptable title evidence to the United States. However, authority has been received to accept the interests conveyed as 11-11 REPORT OF THE CHIEF OF ENGINEERS, U.S. ARMY 1973 best available from local agency with the understanding that the United States rely upon assurances of local cooperation should any claims against the United States occur as a result of failure of local agency to complete transfer of title. Plaquemine-Morgan City alternative route: All assurances required for construction were furnished. Title by United States has been acquired to all but 35 tracts, for which local agency failed to comply fully with curative requirements in title certificate. Authority was given to accept the tracts conveved as best available from local interests and to rely upon assurances of local cooperation furnished by local agency should any claims against the United States occur as a result of failutire of local agency to complete transfer of title. Modification authorized by River and Harbor Act of 1962: Local interests must furnish lands, rights-of-way, and spoil-disposal areas for enlargement and future maintenance of project, make alterations to utilities; construct, maintain, and operate all bridges desired in connection with bypass channel around Houma, La.; and hold the United States free from damages. Assurances were requested in April 1963; however, none of the 11 local agencies involved has furnished assurances requested. Main objection to participation is requirement that local interests be responsible for alteration of utilities. Replacement of Vermilion Lock: The Vermilion Parish Police Jury was requested to execute an Agreement of Local Cooperation on October 26, 1972 agreeing to provide without cost to the United States all lands, easements and rights-of-way required for construction and subsequent maintenance of the replacement lock and approach channels thereto, and hold the United States free from damages due to construction and maintenance of the project, including erosion of the channel beyond the rights-of-way furnished for the replacement lock and the approach channels thereto and comply with the provisions of Public Law 91-646 and section 221 of Public Law 91-611. The Police Jury, by letter dated December 6, 1972, stated that they would not execute the assurances because of lack of sufficient funds with which to comply. Terminal facilities. Large terminal and transfer facilities, suitable for receiving and shipping commodities by barge, are available at principal cities in Louisiana; namely, New Orleans, Baton Rouge, Harvey, Morgan City, and Lake Charles. Facilities at New Orleans are on Inner Harbor navigation canal. Canal and facilities were leased from Board of Commissioners, Port of New Orleans, April 1, 1944, and are now operated by the United States, toll free, 24 hours per day. At Morgan City, on Atchafalaya River, there are two large and three small wharves open to all without charge. Otherwise facilities are confined to privately owned piers, wharves, or oil docks. Facilities considered adequate for existing commerce. Operations and results during fiscal year. New work by hired labor: Work on the Vermilion Lock general design memorandum is scheduled for submission to LMVD in the third quarter. The general design memorandum is essentially 50 percent complete and work is being prosecuted on the basis of a new lock 110 feet wide by 1200 feet long with a sill at -15.0, mean low gulf. Repairs were made to the Houma bulkhead, East Park Avenue Bridge, Houma, Louisiana, and the northeast fender at Inner Harbor navigation canal during the period March 12 to March 29, 1973. Maintenance by hired labor: (a) Algiers Canal: bank stabilization, placement of 5,500 tons of stone along the north bank of the canal from March 1 thru June 30, 1973.

Removal of plants from navigable waters of Florida, Alabama, Mississippi, Louisiana, and Texas, so far as they are or may become an obstruction to navigation, by any mechanical, chemical, or other means whatsoever; for construction and operation of boats equipped with suitable machinery for such removal; and construction and operation of booms to prevent plants drifting from one stream to another. Local cooperation. None required. Operations and results during fiscal year. Maximum use of funds available was made by 11-21 REPORT OF THE CHIEF OF ENGINEERS, U.S. ARMY 1973 using chemical methods of destruction with mechanical equipment held in reserve for use only when hyacinth jams necessitate it. Maintenance continued in main waterways and principal tributaries to prevent water hyacinth obstructions and damage to navigation. Preventive maintenance work was carried out in secondary streams and feeder areas whenever possible. In some cases where alligatorweed has previously kept water- hyacinth fringes confined along the banks, attack of the alligatorweed flea beetles (agasicles) has reduced its competitiveness and water- hyacinths are multiplying and spreading in the waterways. A total of 7,800 acres of water- hyacinth were treated by chemical and mechanical methods in Bayou Black, Lake Cataouatche and feeder streams, Lake des Allemands area, the Port Allen-Morgan City Route and Alternate Route of the GIWW, Lake Dauterive and Grand Lake areas, Bayou Penchant- Bayou Copasaw area, the Gulf Intracoastal Waterway, Bayou Lafourche, Bayou Lacassine and Bayou Teche. Due to very mild winters, it has been necessary to treat most areas three times during the year. Condition at end of fiscal year. From 1900 to 1902 a boat with suitable machinery for destroying hyacinth by crushing was operated. From that time until 1937 hyacinths were destroyed through use of a solution of arsenic and caustic soda which was sprayed on vegetation, removal by hand crews, and controlled in their movements by means of booms and barricades. Use of arsenic was discontinued and hand removal supplanted by use of mechanical equipment in conjunction with chemical spray (2,4-dichlorophenoxy-acetic acid). Use of booms and barricades has been discontinued. Present methods of control are by means of mechanical rotary saw-type destroyers, and chemical treatment. Excellent results are being obtained on water-hyacinths by these methods. 26. TANGIPAHOA RIVER, LA. Location.

See report on Illinois Waterway, Ill. and Ind., under Chicago District. 2. KASKASKIA RIVER, ILL. Location. The river rises in Champaign County, Ill., about 5 miles northwest of Urbana, in east-central part of the State. It flows southwesterly about 325 miles and empties into Mississippi River about 8 miles above Chester, Ill., or about 118 miles above mouth of Ohio River. (See Cincinnati sheet of maps of United States published by Army Map Service, scale 1:500, 000.) Previous project. For details see Annual Report for 1896, page 171. Existing project. Improvement for navigation will provide a channel 9 feet deep and 225 feet wide from mouth to Fayetteville, Illinois. Improvement will consist of enlarging present channel where required, making overbank cutoffs to eliminate sharp bends, and construction of a dam at about mile 0.8 with a single lock 84 feet wide and 600 feet long, at an estimated total Federal project cost (1973) of $112,060,000. Non-Federal cost is $7,665,000, of which $1,- 500,000 is local contribution. Local cooperation. State of Illinois passed legislation authorizing Illinois Department of Public Works and Buildings to enter into assurances of local cooperation with the United States. These assurances have been furnished and were accepted November 23, 1965. The State is continuing with land acquisition. Operations and results during fiscal year. Construction of the canal and lock and dam was continued. Work was continued on highway and railroad alterations. Engineering and design was continued on remaining construction items. Maintenance: Hired labor performed operation and maintenance of the project. Condition at end of fiscal year. Project is about 64 percent complete. 3. MISSISSIPPI RIVER BETWEEN MISSOURI RIVER AND MINNEAPOLIS, MINN. (ST. LOUIS DIST.) See section of this annual report entitled "Mississippi River between Missouri River and Minneapolis, Minn." 4. MISSISSIPPI RIVER BETWEEN OHIO AND MISSOURI RIVERS, MO. AND ILL. Location. Mississippi River rises in Lake Itasca, Minn., and from that lake flows southerly about 2,340 miles and empties into the Gulf of Mexico. Portion included in this report embraces the 195- mile section known as middle Mississippi, between tributary Ohio and Missouri Rivers about 974 to 1,169 miles from the gulf. See folder by Corps of Engineers of Navigation Charts Middle and Upper Mississippi River, Cairo, Ill., to Minneapolis, Minnesota. Previous projects. For details see page 1879 of Annual Report for 1915, and page 1014 of Annual Report for 1938. Existing projects. The existing project provides for obtaining and maintaining a minimum channel depth of not less than 9 feet, a minimum width of not less than 300 feet at low water, with additional widths in bends from mouth of Ohio River (about 974 miles from gulf) to northern boundary of city of St. Louis, miles 191, thence 200 feet wide, with additional width in bends to mouth of Missouri River, mile 195; to be obtained: (1) by regulating works, for closing secondary channels, contracting river by building new banks where river width is excessive and protecting new and old banks from erosion where necessary to secure permanency at an estimated total Federal cost (1973) of $81,000,000; (2) by dredging to maintain project channels; (3) by construction of works authorized for Chain of Rocks reach in 1945 River and Harbor Act, which approved a comprehensive plan for development of the river at Chain of Rocks to provide for construction of a lateral canal at an estimated total Federal project cost (1973) of $57,700,000 and (4) by construction of a fixed-crest rockfill dam about 900 feet below Chain of Rocks Bridge, authorized by 1958 River and Harbor Act, at cost of $4,353,000, excluding $7,000 costs to Coast Guard for aids to navigation. Estimated total Federal project cost (1973) is $143,053,000. A small boat harbor opposite Chester, Ill., is inactive and excluded from foregoing cost estimate. Estimated cost (July 1960) of this portion is $166,600 including $55,000 non-Federal contribution, and excluding $1,000 Coast Guard cost. See House Document 669 (76th Cong., 3d sess.) for report of Chief of Engineers dated February 27, 1940, containing a general plan for improvement of Mississippi River between Coon Rapids Dam and mouth of Ohio River for purposes of 14-2 ST. LOUIS, MO., DISTRICT navigation, power development, flood control, and needs of irrigation. Local cooperation. None required. Terminal facilities. Existing facilities are considered adequate for existing commerce. Operations and results during fiscal year. Regulating Works: Contract work was continued on stone dike construction as was engineering and design and supervision and administration. Chain of Rocks: Engineering and design for guidewalls and tie-down of upper sill are complete, and contract work is in progress for the construction of these items. Dam 27: Project is complete. Maintenance: Work consisted of 4,240 feet of repair and 29,800 feet of revetment dike repair. U.S. plant and hired labor performed channel dredging at 31 locations, removing 4,500,000 cubic yards of material from main channel. Channels dredged had a combined length of 12.4 miles, an average width of 290 feet, and an average gain in depth of 6.4 feet. Condition and operation studies, recreation planning, engineering and design, and operation and maintenance of lock and dam 27 continued. Condition at end of fiscal year. Construction on existing project began in 1881 and project has been in beneficial use practically from its conception. Work on the project is about 81 percent complete. Work required to complete the project includes construction of 21,060 linear feet of dikes; 35,000 linear feet of revetment; removal of 100,000 cubic yards of rock;romoval of 100,000 cubic yards by dredging; upper and lower guidewalls at Lock No. 27; and alterations to sills. Channel as a whole has been greatly improved by the work completed to date. Dredging is required at low stages to remove temporary shoals and maintain required channel depths. Navigation season formerly extended from mid- February to mid-December, the river generally closed by ice remainder of year. However, in recent years increased demands of commerce and use of steel-hull boats have combined to extend navigation season throughout the year except when blocked by heavy ice or gorges. River is generally above 10-foot stage, St. Louis gage, from latter part of February to generally prevail without dredging. Mean stage of river, St. Louis gage, was 9.04 feet for fiscal year 1972 and 20.43 feet for fiscal year 1973. A study is under way to determine whether project criteria need to be revised in order to assure a dependable 9-foot project depth. 5. OTHER AUTHORIZED NAVIGATION PROJECTS See table 14-C. 6. ALTERATION OF BRIDGES See table 14-D. Flood Control 7. EAST ST. LOUIS AND VICINITY, ILL. Location. Project is in St. Clair and Madison Counties, Ill., on the left bank of the Mississippi River between river miles 175 and 195 above the Ohio River. Project includes all bottom lands between bluffs on the east and Mississippi River and Chain of Rocks Canal on the west, and extends from Cahokia diversion channel on the north to Prairie du Pont Creek on the south. (See Corps of Engineers Navigation Charts, Middle and Upper Mississippi River, Cairo, Ill., to Minneapolis, Minn.) Existing project. The 1936 Flood Control Act authorized raising and enlarging existing levee, systems by construction or reconstruction of 19.8 miles of levee, including 3.1 miles of floodwall, together with necessary appurtenant works consisting of gravity drainage structures, highway and railroad closure structures, alterations and reconstruction of existing pumping plants, alterations to railroad bridges and approaches at levee crossings, service roads on levee crown, and seepage control measures. Work under this authorization will provide the area protection against a flood of about 200-year frequency. The completed 10 miles of levee along Chain of Rocks Canal and Lock 27 provides flood protection on the landward side integral with and to the same degree as the East St. Louis levee. Estimated cost of work under this authorization is $22,050,900. The Flood Control Act of 1965 modified existing project to provide for channel improvements, diversion ditches, flood plain detention areas, a reservoir on Little Canteen Creek, and a pumping plant to considerably reduce damages resulting from interior flooding. This act also authorized reconstruction of a channel stabilization dam in Cahokia Creek diversion channel to provide protection to adjacent levees and bridges from scour and eventual loss. Estimated total Federal project cost of work under this authorization is 26,100,000 (1973), $15,400,000 for Cahokia Creek Dam, and $10,700,000 for Interior Flood Control. Non-Federal cost is $9,470,000 Local cooperation. Local interests have fully complied with the requirements of local cooperatwioonrk foaru twhoorrikz eud nder the 1936 authorization.

HARRISONVILLE AND IVY LANDING DRAINAGE AND LEVEE DISTRICT NO. 2, ILL. Location. The district is in Monroe County, Ill., on the left bank of the Mississippi River between river miles 141 and 156 above the mouth of Ohio River. (See St. Louis, Mo., map published by Army Map Service, scale 1:250,000.) Previous project.For details, see page 676 of Annual Report for 1957. Existing Project. Project area contains about 27,800 acres protected from floods of the Mississippi River and Fountain Creek by levees. However, when Mississippi River stage exceeds 15 feet on the St. Louis, Mo., gage, substantial damage results from impoundment of precipitation which falls on the area, runoff from adjacent hill land, and Mississippi construction of two pumping stations to reduce interior flooding. Estimated total Federal project cost (1973) is $3,- 000,000. Local cooperation. Local interests must provide lands, easements, and rights-of-way for construction; hold the United States free from damages; maintain and operate project after completion; prevent encroachment on improved channel and ponding areas and, if ponding areas and capacities are impaired, provide substitute storage capacity or equivalent pumping capacity promptly without cost to the United States.

(See Nashville and Cincinnati sheets of maps of United States, published by Army Map Service scale 1:500,000; also Geological Survey quadrangle maps, 1:62,500.) Existing project. The project provides for construction of a dam at Carlyle and five levee projects between Carlyle and New Athens authorized by 1936 Flood Control Act, and construction of a dam at Shelbyville, six levee projects along river between Cowden and Vandalia, and a local protection project at New Athens, all authorized by 1958 Flood Control Act. Under the plan, Carlyle Lake and lake Shelbyville would be operated as a multiple-purpose project for local and Mississippi River flood control, domestic and industrial water supply, releases in the interest of navigation on the Mississippi River, fish and wildlife conservation, and recreation. The 11 levee projects would provide protection to about 54,- 610 acres of land. In view of inclusion of previously authorized Carlyle Lake and the levees between Carlyle and New Athens in recommended plan, general comprehensive plan for flood control and other purposes in Upper Mississippi River Basin, approved by 1938 Flood Control Act, was modified by deleting Carlyle Lake and levees between Carlyle and New Athens. Flood Control Act of 1965 modified the Flood Control Act of 1958 to: (a) delete requirement that local interests make a cash contribution to the cost of levees between Cowden and Vandalia because of changed land use, and (b) require that local interests make a cash contribution equal to full cost of acquisition of flowage easements in those lands acquired by the United States which, upon completion of the levee in District No. 22, will not be 14-4 ST.

CLARENCE CANNON DAM AND RESERVOIR, SALT RIVER, MO. Location. Salt River rises in Schuyler County, about 12 miles south of Missouri-Iowa State line. It flows southeasterly about 192 miles and empties into Mississippi River about 2 miles above Louisiana, Mo., or about 284 miles above mouth of Ohio River. (See Kansas City and Quincy 14-10 ST. LOUIS, MO., DISTRICT sheets of maps of United States published by Army Map Service, scale 1:500,000 and Geological Survey quadrangle maps, 1:250,000.) Previous project. For details see page 645 of Annual Report for 1963. Existing project. Project provides for construction of a multiple-purpose reservoir, including power, flood control, water supply, navigation storage, pollution abatement, fish and wildlife conservation and recreation. Dam consists of a compacted earth embankment with a concrete spillway controlled by tai;tter gates. Dam and spillway are about 1,700 feet long. Spillway structure consists of an ogee overflow section surmounted by four 50-by 30-foot tainter gates. Reservoir will have a storage capacity of 1,- 428,000 acre-feet for use of flood control, future domestic and industrial water suuply, sediment storage, and power generation. Project document plan provides for installation of two 27,000 kilowatt units, one conventional and one reversible, to be used for pumped storage operations. Total Federal project cost estimate (1973) is $150,- 000,000 of which $14,000,000 is for lands and damages, and $5,700,000 is for water supply. Local cooperation. In accordance with provisions of Water Supply Act of 1958, the cost of storage allocated to water supply would be reimbursed by the local sponsor. State of Missouri, acting through its State Water Resources Board and under authority of the General Assembly of State of Missouri by legislation passed in 1965, will sponsor this project. This legislation provides that the Water Resources Board is authorized to make reasonable assurances and enter into contracts with appropriate Federal departments for purposes of discharging non-Federal responsibilities relating to municipal and industrial water supply storage as permitted by applicable Federal legislation on water resources projects. Assurances were executed by State Board April 8, 1965. Assurances were reviewed by Office of the Attorney General, State of Missouri, and it is his opinion that the State of Missouri has the legal authority and financial capability to execute said assurances. These assurances have been approved by Chief of Engineers. A water supply contract will be entered into with the sponsor before any use of the water supply storage provided under this project. No local contribution for recreation, including recreation aspects of fish and wildlife, is required. Operations and results during fiscal year. Contract for the turbines is under way, and Phase I Main Dam and Abutment exploration contracts were completed. The contract for construction of the administration building and overlook is under way. The Main Dam and Spillway contract, generator contract, and a railroad relocation contract have been awarded. Planning on additional features is continuing. Condition at end of fiscal year. Project is 20 percent complete. Lands acquired to date are 42,514 acres in fee and 4,341 acres in easements. General investigations. 21. SURVEYS Fiscal year costs were $74975 for four navigation studies. $476,774 for ten flood control studies, and $27,910 for one comprehensive basin study. 22. SPECIAL STUDIES Fiscal year costs were $105 for coordination with the Soil Conservation Service. 23. COLLECTION AND STUDY OF BASIC DATA Fiscal year costs of $185,493 for flood plain management services are set forth in table 14-H at end of chapter.

In area which comprises watersheds of ephemeral streams entering a 15-mile reach of Rio Grande from the east at Albuquerque, N. Mex., and vicinity. Combined drainage area of tributaries is about 276 square miles. Sandia Range of the Rocky Mountains, which is about 12 miles east of Rio Grande, forms eastern border of watersheds. Crest of mountain range rises more than a mile above river to an elevation of 10,692 feet above mean sea level. (See Geological Survey Map, Albuquerque, N. Mex., quadrangle, scale 1:62,500.) Existing project. There is a serious flood problem on tributaries of Rio Grande from east in Bernalillo County, Albuquerque, N. Mex., and vicinity. Small detention dams, constructed by city on several of these tributary arroyos, are not * All cost and financial statements for projects are listed at the end of this chapter. All other tables are referenced in text and also appear at the end of this chapter. 17-1 Page 17-10 17-10 17-11 17-12 17-12 17-12 17-12 17-13 17-13 17-13 ___ REPORT OF THE CHIEF OF ENGINEERS, U.S. ARMY 1973 adequate to control floods. Flash floods originating on steep slopes of Sandia Mountains inundate large portions of highly developed lowlands area adjacent to river. Central business district, mainland and division shops of Atchison, Topeka & Santa Fe Railway, Federal and State highways, and commercial, industrial, residential, and suburban properties in lowlands are subject to flood damages. Plan of improvement consists of north and south diversion channels on high ground east of and parallel to valley. Channels are designed to carry floods equal in magnitude to standard project flood from all tributaries. Estimated Federal cost is $17,500,000. Estimated non-Federal cost, including required cash contribution of $530,000 is $11,060,000. Lands and damages costs are responsibility of local interests. (See Table 17-B for authorizing legislation.) Local cooperation. In addition to usual requirements, local interests must alter existing improvements, other than railroads, and prevent further encroachment upon existing defined waterways of tributaries by zoning or other means, or construct adequate waterways, or provide other drainage facilities to prevent flood problems in heights area of Albuquerque from developing into one of serious proportions. Local cooperation requirements also include cash contribution toward cost of construction in lump sum amounts equivalent to about 1.3 percent of total first cost of north diversion channel and about 3.4 percent of total first cost of south diversion channel. Total estimated cost to local interests, including cash contribution toward cost of construction is $11,060,000. Preconstruction planning was initiated in 1956. Work was stopped in fiscal year 1959 as a result of failure of local interests to comply with requirements. On November 21, 1958, 5-year notice of expiration of project authorization was issued to local interests. By act of State Legislature of New Mexico in 1963, Albuquerque Metropolitan Arroyo Flood Control Authority was created to provide local sponsorship for project subject to election of Board of Directors and approval of bond issue to provide funds for the authority. On August 27, 1963, voters approved a $9.5 million bond issue for funding necessary local cooperation costs and elected a board of directors to serve as its governing body. Formal assurances were accepted by district on November 19, 1963. An additional bond issue to cover increase in non-Federal cost was approved by voters in general election November 8, 1966. Operations and results during fiscal year. Ordinary maintenance and operation continued. The North Diversion Channel prevented an estimated $2,338,000 annual flood damages during FY 1972. The estimated total accumulated flood damages prevented through FY 1972 amount to $3,331,000. Peak floodflows recorded during FY 1973 were: August 29, 2,400 c.f.s. (400 acre-feet); September 8, 2,040 c.f.s. (200 acre-feet); October 19, 800 c.f.s. (250 acre-feet); October 25, 2,750 c.f.s. (526 acre-feet); June 13, 2,720 c.f.s. (520 acre-feet) there were no significant flows in the South Diversion Channel during FY 1973. Condition at end of fiscal year. Construction of the north and south diversion channels was completed in March 1972. Corrective work on the Alameda outlet structure (North Diversion Channel) has been planned and the contract will be awarded during FY 1974. 2. CONCHAS LAKE, CANADIAN RIVER, N. MEX. Location. Dam is in San Miguel County, N. Mex., on Canadian River, about one-fourth mile downstream from confluence of Canadian and Conchas Rivers. It is about 30 miles northwest of Tucumcari, N. Mex., and 743 miles upstream from mouth of Canadian River. Canadian River is about 906 miles long, rises in northeastern part of New Mexico, and flows south and east to Arkansas River near Webbers Falls, Okla. (See Geological Survey State map of New Mexico, scale 1:500,000, and Geological Survey topographic map, Tucumcari quadrangle, scale 1:125,000.) Existing project. A concrete gravity main dam section 1,250 feet long with a maximum height of 200 feet above streambed located in Canadian River Canyon together with earth dikes on each side having an overall length of about 3.7 miles. Main section contains conduits in its base for release of water to maintain low flows and for drainage of reservoir, and an overflow, ungated spillway 300 feet long. Earth dikes vary in height up to 100 feet and north dike contains a concrete ogee-type emergency spillway 3,000 feet long. Reservoir has a gross storage capacity of 529,000 acre-feet (198,900 for flood control, 259,600 for water conservation and irrigation, and 70,500 dead storage). Dam controls 7,409 square miles of drainage area. Federal cost was $15,811,171, including $2,279,326 for initiating construction of project under authority of Emergency Relief Appropriation Act of 1935. (See Table 17-B for authorizing legislation.) Local cooperation. None required. Operations and results during fiscal year. Operation of reservoir continued. Reservoir was operated for storage of floodwaters and releases for irrigation purposes. Estimated total accumulated flood damages prevented by project through fiscal year 1972 were $500,000. There were no floodflows of significance during FY 17-2 ALBUQUERQUE, N. MEX., DISTRICT 1972. Estimated irrigation benefits for fiscal year 1972 were $258,000. Estimated total accumulated irrigation benefits through fiscal year 1972 were $5,779,700. Pool elevation at start of fiscal year was 4,166.81 feet, with corresponding storage of 111,784 acre-feet. The maximum pool elevation and storage for the year were 4,199.47 feet and 315,563 acre-feet, respectively, on 1 June. Pool elevation did not exceed spillway crest (elevation 4,201 feet) during the fiscal year. Total releases for fiscal year were 65,656 acre-feet (65,546 for irrigation, and 110 miscellaneous losses). Releases of 64,092 acre-feet were made to Arch Hurley Conservancy District and 1,454 acre-feet to Bell Ranch. Pool elevation on June 30, 1973, was 4,- 198.41 feet with corresponding storage of 305,- 792 acre-feet. Condition at end of fiscal year. Existing project was essentially complete in 1940. Reservoir and appurtenances are in good condition and in operation. Irrigation of some lands under project was begun in November 1945. 3. DODGE CITY, KANS. Location. At Dodge City, Ford County, Kans., on Arkansas River about 130 miles downstream from Colorado-Kansas State line. (See Geological Survey map for Dodge quadrangle, scale 1:125,000.) Existing project. About 7 miles of levees of about 8.3 feet average height on both banks of Arkansas River (4.3 miles on left bank and 2.6 miles on right bank) and enlargement of river channel to form a floodway about 470 feet wide which will convey a flow of 40,000 cubic feet per second through city. Levees will be protected by flexible-type steel jetties. Four reaches of floodwalls about 100 feet long will be provided to insure continuity between levees and bridge abutments. Project also includes relocation of a railroad bridge and grade raise. Appurtenant works include interior drainage structures and fencing, a pumping plant for disposal of sanitary sewage during high water periods, and minor alterations to local roads and a sanitary sewerline. As result of the very damaging flood of June 1965 on the Arkansas River, which peaked at about 82,000 c.f.s. at Dodge City, consideration was given to modification of project design to increase protection to maximum extent practicable without causing substantial increase in Federal and non-Federal costs. Plan adopted is based on a design flow of 40,000 c.f.s. with the added requirement that top of levees would not be lower than the profile for 60,000 c.f.s. flow. The top of levee profile for 60,000 c.f.s. would increase the floodway capacity so it would not be necessary to raise the bridges on Second Street and 14th Avenue. The bridge crossings would require sandbagging during floods of 60,000 c.f.s. magnitude. Revised frequency curves prepared since 1965 flood indicate 40,000 c.f.s. flow would occur about once in 63 years and 82,000 c.f.s. flow about once in 250 years. These frequency curves also show that a 90-year frequency has a discharge of about 48,000 c.f.s., and such a flow could be safely passed through the floodway as presently designed. Estimated Federal cost is $4,290,000. Cost of lands and damages is responsibility of local interests. (See Table 17-B for authorizing legislation.) Local cooperation. In addition to usual requirements, local interests must acquire easement for flood-zoning purposes in areas that would be used for ponding of interior drainage waters and hold United States free from claims as a result of flooding from residual interior drainage during operation of project; alter existing improvements, other than railroads, including provision of a sewage disposal pumping plant; inform all individuals concerned about residual flooding problem involved owing to temporary ponding; and provide assurances that encroachment on improved river channels, interior drains, and ponding areas will not be permitted; and if ponding areas and capacities are impaired, provide substitute storage capacity or equivalent pumping capacity. A bond issue for flood control purposes was approved by the voters October 12, 1965. Formal assurances were received March 25, 1970. Local interests executed an agreement on 21 May 1973 in compliance with Section 221, 1970 Flood Control Act and PL 91-646 Uniform Relocations Assistance Act of 1970. Estimated non-Federal cost is $850,000. Operations and results during fiscal year. Preconstruction planning was continued. The cost reimbursable contract with the Chicago Rock Island and Pacific Railroad Company for design of the railroad bridge and grade raise was completed in FY 1973. The construction plans and specifications for the channels, canals, levees and floodwalls were continued. Condition at end of fiscal year. Preconstruction planning is essentially complete. The plans and specifications for the railroad bridge and grade raise are complete. The plans and specifications for the channels, levees and floodwalls are about 97 percent complete. 4. EL PASO, TEX. Location. At El Paso, El Paso County, Tex., which is on left bank of Rio Grande in reach that forms part of international boundary between United States and Republic of Mexico. (Geological Survey map for El Paso, Tex.; New Mexico quadrangle, scale 1:250,000.) 17-3 REPORT OF THE CHIEF OF ENGINEERS, U.S. ARMY 1973 Existing project. Consists of a single-purpose flood control system of detention dams, diversion dikes, and channels to collect, regulate, and discharge arroyo runoff into Rio Grande. Runoff from tributary arroyos on eastern, southern, and western slopes of adjacent Franklin Mountains often inundates sections of city and its outlying suburban developments. Project is divided into four independent elements: Northwest area, Central area, and two units (Copper System and Bluff Channel) in Southeast area. Improvements for Central area and Copper System of Southeast area are authorized for construction as soon as practicable, whereas construction of remainder of project (Northwest area and Bluff Channel of Southeast area) is to be deferred until construction is initiated by International Boundary and Water Commission on improvements' which may be required to increase capacity of Rio Grande and its floodway. Elements authorized for construction as soon as practicable consist of seven reservoirs plus diversion and outlet channels in Central area to operate in conjunction with existing facilities and two reservoirs together with diversions and an outfall channel in Copper System of Southeast area. Deferred elements include three reservoirs and a diversion channel with appurtenances in Northwest area and Bluff Channel in Southeast area to intercept arroyo flows above area of principal damage and convey them to Rio Grande. Estimated Federal cost is $23,200,000. (See Table 17-B for authorizing legislation.) Authorized plans of improvement as recommended in survey report for Northwest area and Southeast area (Bluff Channel) would change flow conditions in Rio Grande through reach which forms part of international boundary between United States and Mexico. Proposed flood control project would collect and divert interior runoff which now ponds on valley floor and which would be discharged into this reach of river. Recommended plan was authorized subject to review and analysis of need for levee enlargement and channel improvement on Rio Grande by IB & WC. IB & WC has determined that it is not feasible to increase discharges into river as proposed in recommended plan and has stated that it would not serve best interests of United States to undertake necessary levee enlargement and channel improvements involved on Rio Grande. Instead, IB & WC recommends adoption of Plan B for the Northwest area as presented in survey report, which calls for four additional dams and minimum diversion channel work but which would cost about $4,000,000 additional. Boundary Commission would justify this plan by supporting additional costs. For Southeast area it recommends Plan C as presented in survey report which would substitute two dams for Bluff Channel at no extra cost over authorized plan. Local cooperation. In addition to usual requirements, local interests must alter existing improvements, other than railroads or improvements constructed and maintained by United States, prevent encroachment on all of project works which would reduce their design capacities; take steps to prevent encroachment upon existing defined waterways tributary to project by zoning or other means such as enlargements, or other modifications, of existing waterway facilities to prevent minor flood problems in these tributary waterways from developing into problems of serious proportions; and inform all concerned that project is designed to control floods originating above structures and that some residual flooding may be expected from precipitation occurring below structures. Estimated non-Federal cost is $4,300,000. Operations and results during fiscal year. Construction was continued in the Central Area. Construction of the Northgate and Range Dams and their associated channels and canals was completed in February, 1973. Feature design memoranda for the Pershing System and Mckelligon- Fillmore System of the Central Area was continued. Plans and specifications for the Sunrise and Mountain Park Systems were completed during 1973. A Phase I General Design Memorandum for the Northwest Area was also completed. Condition at end of fiscal year. Preconstruction planning is complete. Planning for the Northwest Area is continuing. Planning for the Copper System of the Southeast Area has been temporarily suspended. The city requests this postponement until they complete alternate studies to solve this problem. The construction for the Central Area portion of the project is about 35 percent complete. Phase I GDM-Plan Formulation for the Northwest Area was prepared and submitted for approval in June 1973. 5. GREAT BEND, KANS. Location. At Great Bend, Barton County, Kans., on left bank of Arkansas River at river mile 873, about 4.5 miles upstream from confluence of Walnut Creek with Arkansas River.

On Arkansas River 1,159 miles upstream from its mouth, 300 miles downstream from its source, in Bent County, about 18 miles upstream from city of Lamar, Colo. (See Geological Survey maps for Lamar and Las Animas (Colo.) quadrangles, scale 1:125,000.) Existing project. A concrete and earthfill structure about 2.6 miles long with a maximum height of 118 feet above streambed and an overflow, gated spillway 1,174 feet long. Total capacity of reservoir at spillway crest is 621,000 acre-feet (261,000 for flood control and 360,700 for conservation and recreation storage). Reservoir controls a contributing drainage area of 18,130 square miles and is operated as a unit of coordinated reservoir system for flood control in Arkansas River Basin. Federal cost was $15,173,389. (See Table 17-B for authorizing legislation.) Public Law 89-298 modified the act of June 22, 1936 (49 Stat. 1570) to authorize and direct Chief of Engineers to use, not to exceed, 10,000 acre-feet of reservoir flood control storage space for fish and wildlife and recreation purposes. The Chief of Engineers provided this space and set top elevation of conservation, fish and wildlife and recreation pool at elevation 3,851.83 feet contingent upon stipulations and limitations of said act. Local cooperation. Section 2 ood Control Act of June 28, 1938, applies. Operations and results during fiscal year. Ordinary maintenance and operation continued. Regulation of conservation storage continued under rules and regulations of Arkansas River Compact. No flood damages were prevented during fiscal year 1972; however, $171,000 sediment damages were prevented. Estimated total flood and sediment damages prevented by project through fiscal year 1972 were $72,781,000. Estimated irrigation benefits for fiscal year 1972 were $103,000. Estimated total accumulative irriation benefits through fiscal year 1972 were 18,664,000. Maximum pool elevation of 3,8- 09.95 feet with corresponding storage of 55,671 acre-feet occurred on May 14, 1973. Total releases for fiscal year were 114,268 acre-feet. Releases attributed to irrigation benefits amounted to 59,323 acre-feet. Reservoir was empty July 1, 1972 until November 2, 1972 when winter storage began. Condition at end of fiscal year. Storage and operation of reservoir for irrigation began in March 1943. Construction of dam and appurtenances was completed in October 1948 and are in good condition and in operation. 17-5 REPORT OF THE CHIEF OF ENGINEERS, U.S. ARMY 1973 7. LAS ANIMAS, COLO. Location. At Las Animas, Bent County, Colo., at river mile 1,175 on Arkansas River, just upstream from its confluence with Pur gatoire River, a major tributary that enters Arkansas River from south. (See Geological Survey map, Lamar, Colo.; Kans. quadrangle, scale 1:250,000.) Existing project. Consists of a levee 9.3 miles long on south bank of Arkansas River and a levee about 1 mile long on north bank. Appurtenant works include levee protection measures; an interior drainage system consisting of outlet structures, a ditch, and ponding areas; and intake structures for irrigation canals. Design flood is 140,000 cubic feet per second, which is equivalent to flood of record (June 1921 flood with peak discharge of 187,000 cubic feet per second, reduced by regulatory effect of Barrier Dam, near Pueblo, Colo., which was placed in operation shortly after June 1921 flood). Estimated Federal cost is $2,620,000. (See Table 17-B for authorizing legislation.) Local cooperation. In addition to usual requirements, local interests must at least annually inform individuals concerned about residual flood problem involved owing to temporary ponding; prevent encroachment on river channel, which would reduce design flow capacity through leveed section and on ponding areas and interior drains; and if ponding area is impaired, provide substitute storage or equivalent pumping capacity promptly without cost to United States; and alter existing improvements, other than railroad bridges and approaches in connection therewith. Local interests will also be required to comply with Section 221, 1970 Flood Control Act and PL 91-646 Uniform Relocation Assistance Act of 1970. In addition, construction will begin concurrent with or subsequent to replacement of United States Highway 50 bridge across Arkansas River. Construction of U.S. Highway 50 bridge across Arkansas River has been completed. Inasmuch as the flood control project extends beyond the corporate city limits of Las Animas, Colorado, the Arkansas River Conservancy District, Las Animas, Colorado, a political subdivision duly constituted and organized under the laws of the State of Colorado, is the sponsoring agency which will furnish required local cooperation. Conservancy District has jurisdiction and power to levy taxes both in the city and in those areas outside city limits affected by the project. Prior to authorization of project, the Conservancy District pledged in writing that it favored project and would furnish required local cooperation. Estimated non-Federal cost is $220,000. Operations and results during fiscal year. Preconstruction planning was completed. Condition at end of fiscal year. Preconstruction planning is complete and all planning is about 73 percent complete. 8. LAS CRUCES, N. MEX. Location. On tributaries of Rio Grande at Las Cruces, Dona Ana County, N. Mex., about 87 miles downstream from Elephant Butte Dam. (See Geological Survey Map for Las Cruces, N. Mex., quadrangle, scale 1:62,500.) Existing project. Consists of Las Cruces Dam which extends across Alameda and Las Cruces Arroyos. The dam will be provided with an uncontrolled outlet and spillway. Las Cruces Dam, about 1,000 feet east of Las Cruces city limits, will be earthfill construction about 15,570 feet long and 67 feet high with both slopes protected. Discharges from dam will be conveyed downstream in channel of Alameda Arroyo to the Dona Ana Drain. Reservoir capacity is 13,200 acre-feet at maximum water surface and 8,200 acre-feet at spillway crest. Controlled drainage area is 28.9 square miles. Estimated Federal cost is $4,350,000. (See Table 17-B for authorizing legislation.) Local cooperation. In addition to usual requirements, local interests must alter existing improvements, other than railroads; prevent encroachment upon the outlet channel from Las Cruces Dam to Dona Ana Drain to maintain a 290 cubic feet per second channel capacity; design construct and maintain a minimum 290 cubic feet per second multi-purpose outlet channel from the Corps' outlet channel along the existing Dona Ana, Mesilla and Del Rio Drains to the Rio Grande; inform citizens that residual flooding may occur downstream of the dam; and prevent encroachment on the reservoir area that would reduce its storage. The estimated non-federal cost is $1,710,000. Local interests signed an agreement satisfying all requirements on 15 December 1972. All lands have been acquired. The City of Las Cruces requested the Campus Dam portion be deleted from the project. The New Mexico State University plans to solve the Campus Arroyo flood problem locally Operations and results during fiscal year. Changes in design of the outlet channel were completed. The design change used the existing Dona Ana Drain instead of the originally proposed outlet channel. This change is preferred by the city and is in their long range master plan for drainage. The city negotiated with the Bureau of Reclamation for use of the Dona Ana Drain for multi-purpose flows. The resolution dated November 17, 1970, supporting and 17-6 ALBUQUERQUE, N. MEX., DISTRICT pledging cooperation for this revised outlet channel plan was approved. Condition at end of fiscal year. Preconstruction planning was completed during the year and the embankment contract was awarded in May 1973 and work was started on June 15, 1973. 9. LOS ESTEROS LAKE, N. MEX. Location. Los Esteros Lake is in Guadalupe County, on Pecos River, at river mile 766.4 approximately 7 miles north of Santa Rosa, N. Mex. (See U.S. Geological Survey map, Corazon, N. Mex., sheet, scale 1:125,000.) Existing project. Authorized plan of improvement consists of an earth and rock fill dam 1,900 feet long and 210 feet maximum height above the streambed. Project purposes are flood control, irrigation and sediment retention. An unlined, open rock cut about 1,000 feet back from the left abutment serves as an uncontrolled spillway. The outlet works, located in the left abutment, consists of a control tower, intake structure with gates, and a 10 foot diameter concrete tunnel with a terminal flip bucket energy dissipater. Storage capacity at the spillway crest is 451,000 acre-feet which includes 82,000 storage, 200,000 acre-feet irrigation storage and 169,000 acre-feet flood control storage. Surface area of the reservoir at the spillway crest is 10,674 acres. Contributing drainage area at the damsite is 2,- 479 square miles. Authorized project also includes modification of the existing Alamogordo Dam and Reservoir on the Pecos River, (river mile 710.8) about 56 miles downstream from Los Esteros Lake. This modification provided for a reservoir capacity of 210,000 acre-feet by raising the dam embankment 10.5 feet and constructing an emergency spillway through the ridge on the right abutment. Changes to the service spillway were to limit the discharge to the capacity of the existing chute spillway and tainters. Project document also reallocated the storage in Alamogordo Dam and Reservoir to exclusive flood control use. Subsequent to project authorization, the Bureau of Reclamation modified the existing structure to its feasible limit without major reconstruction. This modification consisted of raising the dam height 16 feet, altering the existing service spillway to limit the discharge to 56,000 c.f.s., and constructing an uncontrolled emergency spillway in the left abutment. The spillway capacity is 206,000 c.f.s. Storage allocation studies in response to authorizing document provides for transfer of all but 20,000 acre-feet of irrigation storage to Los Esteros Lake with remainder of storage in Alamogordo Reservoir reserved for flood control purpose. This transfer will be done under terms of the Pecos River Compact with consent of the Carlsbad Irrigation District. The estimated Federal (Corps of Engineers) cost for Los Esteros Lake is $18,000,000. (See Table 17-B for authorizing legislation.) Local cooperation. In addition to first costs, operation and maintenance of both reservoirs will be responsibility of Federal Government; however, Carlsbad Irrigation District will be required to contribute to operation and maintenance costs an annual amount equal to what they now pay toward Alamogordo Dam. Carlsbad Irrigation District also will be required to agree to use of Alamogordo Reservoir for flood-control purposes. Because they will realize equivalent benefits from storage capacity in Los Esteros Lake, they will be required to continue to fulfill their repayment obligation. Project was authorized subject to the provision that "no appropriation shall be made for construction of Los Esteros Lake until satisfactory arrangements have been made by the State of New Mexico for the transfer of irrigation storage from the Alamogordo Reservoir." Engineer advisors to Pecos River Compact Commission have completed water studies to determine the effects of project on water supply in Pecos River basin. Corps, U.S. Bureau of Reclamation, Carlsbad Irrigation District, and engineer advisors to Texas and New Mexico commissioners participated in studies. Completed studies have been approved and accepted by Pecos River Compact Commission and State Engineer of New Mexico. A memorandum of agreement has been executed between the Corps of Engineers and the U. S. Bureau of Reclamation who has executed an agreement with the Carlsbad Irrigation District for transfer of this irrigation storage from the Alamogordo Reservoir to Los Esteros Lake. Ft. Sumner Irrigation District submitted a formal protest of the agreement between U. S. Bureau of Reclamation and Carlsbad Irrigation District. The State Engineer approved the transfer of irrigation storage and was upheld by the Guadalupe County District Court on June 4, 1973. Operations and results during fiscal year. The general design memorandum was approved on September 17, 1970. Plans and specifications for construction of the access road (Phase I) were approved. Acquisition of required rights-of-way for this road was completed. The feature design memorandum for the outlet works, embankment, spillway and project buildings was continued. The Real Estate design memorandum for dam site work area and public use area has been approved by OCE. Condition at end of fiscal year. Preconstruction planning is complete. Construction of the access 17-7 REPORT OF THE CHIEF OF ENGINEERS, U.S. ARMY 1973 road (Phase I) will be initiated during fiscal year 1974. The feature design memorandum for the outlet works, embankment, spillway and project buildings is about 99 percent complete. 10. RIO GRANDE BASIN, N. MEX. Location. Improvements are on Rio Grande and tributaries in New Mexico. More definite locations and descriptions of individual projects are in following paragraphs and individual reports by projects. Existing project. Flood Control Act of 1948 authorized flood control phase of comprehensive plan of development of water resources of Rio Grande basin in New Mexico (H. Doc. 243, 81st Cong., 1st sess.) with exception of Chiflo Dam and Reservoir and spillway gate structure at Chamita Dam. Although recommended Chiflo Dam and Reservoir was deleted from authorized plan, it was excluded without prejudice to future consideration by Congress. It was requested at that time, by States of Colorado and Texas, that project be deferred for restudy regarding required storage and methods of operation. By same act, Congress also authorized for construction irrigation phase of cornm prehensive plan as recommended by Bureau of Reclamation (H. Doc. 653, 81st Cong., 2d sess.). The act also stipulated that work should be prosecuted in accordance with joint agreement approved by Secretary of the Army and Acting Secretary of the Interior on November 21, 1957. In addition, under that agreement Bureau of Reclamation was given resposnpsnisbbiilliitty ffoor construction, operaast iogni,e aned maintenance of channel rectification, and drainage rehabilitation and extension phases of unified plan of improvement. Authority for Chamita Dam and Reservoir was abrogated when Cochiti Dam and Reservoir was authorized. (See Table 17-B for authorizing legislation and Table 17-C for existing projects.) All operations and costs for projects in authorized plan are in individual reports on the following pages. 10A. ABIQUIU DAM, N. MEX. Location. Project is one unit of flood control phase of comprehensive plan for Rio Grande and tributaries, New Mexico. Abiquiu Dam is on Rio Chama near town of Abiquiu, N. Mex., about 32 miles upstream from confluence of Rio Chama and Rio Grande. (See Geological Survey Map for plan and profile of Rio Chama, N. Mex., from mouth to mile 103, sheet 1, and Army Map Service, Aztec, N. Mex.; Colorado NJ 13-10, scale 1:250,000.) Existing project. An earthfill dam 1,540 feet long, rising 325 feet above streambed, with a 12-foot diameter controlled outlet, and an uncontrolled spillway in a natural saddle about one mile north of left abutment. Reservoir provides 569,400 acre-feet of flood control and sediment storage. Total capacity at spillway crest is 1,- 217,000 acre-feet. Estimated Federal cost is $21,272,300. (See Table 17-B for authorizing legislation.) Operations and results during fiscal year. Ordinary maintenance and operation continued. Storage and flows were regulated in accordance with regulations prescribed by Rio Grande Compact Commission. On July 1, 1972, pool elevation was 6,108.52 with corresponding storage of 1,923 acre-feet. The reservoir was regulated for sediment control from July 1, 1972 until May 6, 1973 by maintaining a pool of about 2,000 acre-feet. From May 6 until June 30, 1973 the reservoir was regulated for flood control to reduce flood damages in the Chama Valley and in the Espanola and Middle Valleys of the Rio Grandy. Without Abiquiu Reservoir the peak flow at Chamita, New Mexico would have been 7,960 c.f.s. on May 21, 1973; whereas the actual peak flow was 3,098 c.f.s. on May 13, 1973. Maximum flows through the Espanola and Middle Valleys were reduced by about 6,000 c.f.s. The maximum pool elevation during the year occurred on June 24, 1973 and was 6,219.50 feet with a corresponding storage of 203,500 acre-feet. There were 1,260 acre-feet of sediment deposited in Abiquiu Reservoir during the year. The pool elevation on June 30, 1973 was 6,2- 16.76 with a corresponding storage of 192,440 acre-feet. Accumulated flood and sediment damages revented by the project since completion were 1,086,000 through fiscal year 1972. Condition at end of fiscal year. Project was placed in operation in February 1963. 10B. COCHITI LAKE, N. MEX. Location. Dam is at river mile 340 on Rio Grande (river mile 0 being at intersection of New Mexico-Texas State line with international boundary at El Paso, Tex.), near village of Cochiti, which is about 50 miles upstream from Albuquerque, N. Mex. (See Geological Survey Maps, Cochiti Dam, N. Mex., Quadrangle and Santo Domingo Pueblo, N. Mex., quadrangle, scale 1:24,000.) Existing project.

An uncontrolled spillway with a 460-foot-long ogee-weir and a 160-foot notch 10 feet deep in center will be at end of embankment on south side of Santa Fe River. Operational releases for flood control and irrigation will be made through a 3-barrel gated conduit in left abutment on Rio Grande. No outlet will be provided on Santa Fe River. Dead storage in Santa Fe River and Canada de Cochiti arms of reservoir will be eliminated by means of conveyance channels. Construction will also involve relocation of a gravel-surfaced Forest Service road and an irrigation headworks and canal. Reservoir will have a storage capacity of 442,000 acre-feet for flood control, 110,000 acre-feet for sediment, and 50,000 acre-feet for recreation a total of 602,000 acre-feet. Storage capacity for permanent pool for recreation will be provided by slightly modifying the operating procedures. Modification of project structures, except for specific recreation facilities, will not be necessary because of permanent pool. Estimated Federal cost is $90,600,000. (See Table 17-B for authorizing legislation.) Operations and results during fiscal year. Construction continued on embankment and conveyance channels, portions of outlet and spillway, phase 2 road relocation, utilities, structures, reservoir clearing and service road.

Reservoir has a capacity of 110,750 acre-feet (73,000 acre-feet for flood control and 37,750 acre-feet for sediment control). It is estimated that 70,000 acre-feet of storage will be available in the reservoir for flood control after 50 years of project life. Estimated Federal cost is $5,623,000, including $1,446,000 for recreation facilities. (See Table 17-B for authorizing legislation.) Operations and results during fiscal year. Ordinary maintenance and operation continued. Reservoir was empty on July 1, 1972. The reservoir was regulated for sediment control for short periods during August, September, October, March, and April. At other times the reservoir remained empty until flood control regulation for the spring runoff began on April 28, 1973. Regulation for flood and sediment control continued through June 30, 1973 at which time there remained 13 acre-feet in storage. Maximum flows of the Rio Grande through the 17-9 REPORT OF THE CHIEF OF ENGINEERS, U.S. ARMY 1973 Middle Valley below the mouth of Jemez Creek were reduced by about 700 c.f.s. by regulation at Jemez Canyon Dam. The maximum pool elevation for Fiscal Year 1973 was 5,189.20 feet with a corresponding storage of 25,711 acre-feet and occurred on May 26, 1973. Sediment deposition during the year was 620 acre-feet. Estimated total accumulated flood and sediment damages prevented by project through fiscal year 1972 were $1,710,000. Condition at end of fiscal year. Construction of project was initiated May 1950 and completed May 1954. Work remaining consists of recreation facilities. 10E. RIO GRANDE FLOODWAY, N. MEX. Location. Project is one unit of flood control phase of comprehensive plan of improvement for Rio Grande Basin in New Mexico. It is on Rio Grande and covers section of river commencing near Truth or Consequences (formerly Hot Springs) at about river mile 123 and extends upstream to lower end of Rio Grande Canyon about 14 miles upstream from Espanola, N. Mex., about river mile 394. (See Table 17-D on Rio Grande Floodway.) Existing project. Consists of flood protection and major drainage improvements by channel rectification, levee enlargement and construction, and bank stabilization work where needed to protect levees. Construction of project is a joint undertaking by Bureau of Reclamation and the Corps. Portions to be done by Corps will consist of levee enlargement, construction, and bank protection work, with channel-rectification and drainage-rehabilitation work the responsibility of Bureau of Reclamation. Levees constructed by local interests exist through reach of river involved, but are not uniform as to grade, section, or standard of construction, and in many places are threatened by meandering river. (See Table 17-D on existing project and Table 17-B for authorizing legislation.) Local cooperation. In addition to usual requirements, local interests are responsible for all highway, bridge, and public utility relocations or replacements required in construction of project. Local interests will also be required to comply with requirements of Section 221, 1970 Flood Control Act and PL 91-646 Uniform Relocation Assistance Act of 1970. Fully complied with for completed units of floodway. Total costs for all requirements for completed Albuquerque unit under terms of project authorization were $75,- 000. There were no non-Federal costs in connection with construction of Cochiti to Rio Puerco unit of floodway. Espanola Valley unit was inactive for several years; however, in December 1963, local interests reaffirmed need for flood protection for city of Espanola, and indicated in writing that they were willing and able to provide necessary rights-of-way for levees and make utility relocations required in construction of project. Project was reclassified to active category, and funds were appropriated for initiation of preconstruction planning in fiscal year 1966. Right-of-entry was obtained on May 15, 1967, from the Indian Pueblo of Santa Clara, the principal landowner affected by the project. The negotiations between the city and Santa Clara Pueblo to obtain formal assurances failed to materialize. The city was notified that the five-year period in which to comply with their requirements had begun on August 2, 1973. The city has not given indication they plan positive action to resolve the problem. Operations and results during fiscal year. Preconstruction planning for the Espanola Valley unit of the floodway was completed. The failure to obtain formal assurances resulted in the District reporting on November 2, 1972 funds available for construction to be excess. Estimated total accumulated flood damages prevented by the floodway project through fiscal year 1972 amounted to $860,000. Condition at end of fiscal year. Construction of Albuquerque and Cochiti to Rio Puerco units of Rio Grande Floodway project is complete. San Acacia to Bosque del Apache unit is deferred for restudy. The Truth or Consequences (Hot Springs) Unit was recommended for reclassification to the active category based on a letter of intent to cooperate from the city of Truth or Consequences dated May 31, 1973 and Sierra County, dated June 4, 1973. Hydrology and general design memoranda for Espanola Valley unit have been approved. Preconstruction planning was completed and five-year notice issued on August 2, 1972. 11. TRINIDAD LAKE, COLO. Location. On Purgatoire River about 161 miles above its junction with Arkansas River. Project is about 4 miles upstream from city of Trinidad, Colo.

Reservoir provides for storage of 51,000 acre-feet for flood control, 39,000 17-10 ALBUQUERQUE, N. MEX., DISTRICT acre-feet for sediment, 20,000 acre-feet irrigation, and 4,500 acre-feet for recreation, a total of 114,500 acre-feet. Reservoir controls a drainage area of 606 square miles and will be operated for flood and sediment control, irrigation, and recreation purposes. Estimated Federal cost is $36,- 400,000 (CE) & $160,000 (USBR). (See Table 17-B for authorizing legislation.) Local cooperation. Requirements based on approved general design memorandum studies: Repayment by Purgatoire River Water Conservancy District of first cost allocated to irrigation established as 29.28 percent of total project cost generally in accordance with Federal reclamation law procedures, except that repayment of irrigation first cost may extend over a period not to exceed 75 years including a 5-year development period which results in an actual amortization period of 70 years; contribution of $21,400 annually by State of Colorado for replacement of evaporation and seepage losses from permanent fishery pool; Purgatoire River Water Conservancy District (representing the irrigators) is required to bear 19.82 percent of annual joint-use operation and maintenance costs and 2.52 percent of major replacement costs presently estimated at $13,600 annually; in addition, estimated annual cost to city of Trinidad for maintenance of channel of Purgatoire River through city is $1,100. In addition conservancy district must make arrangements for transfer of Model Land and Irrigation Co.'s storage rights from existing Model Reservoir to Trinidad Reservoir. Storage for recreation purposes not included in authorized project plan; however, project document noted that substantial benefits would be derived from such use and that there was strong local support for such storage. Provision was made in project plan for 4,500 acre-feet of permanent storage for recreation; however, since flows of Purgatoire River are fully appropriated, water rights will have to be acquired by non-Federal interests. Estimated cost of initial filling of pool is $250,000 and replacement of evaporation losses will cost an estimated $21,400 per year. Lands and facilities for recreation will be provided at Federal expense, but cost of water rights will be borne by the State of Colorado. Assurances of local cooperation received from City of Trinidad and Purgatoire River Water Conservancy District were formally accepted May 11, 1967, after execution of irrigation repayment contract. Stipulated decree changing place of storage of water rights decreed to existing Model Reservoir from that reservoir to proposed Trinidad Reservoir was conditionally approved by Las Animas County, Colorado, District Court April 15, 1965, subject to ultimate execution and approval of irrigation repayment contract, which qualifying condition is now removed. Purgatoire River Water Conservancy District, representing water users, signed prime irrigation repayment contract January 21, 1967. Prime contract was then signed by Regional Direcor, Region 7, Bureau of Reclamation February 10, 1967, under delegated authority of U.S. Department of Interior. Contract is dated February 10, 1967. Irrigation repayment contract was confirmed by decree of Las Animas County, Colorado, District Court entered into March 21, 1967, and 30-day period of appeal required by Colorado statutes expired with no appeals being filed. Operations and results during fiscal year. Real estate acquisition continued. Plans and specifications for the Colorado State Highway relocation were completed and contract awarded during the year. The contract for embankment, spillway, relocated railroad and water supply line continued. Condition at end of year. Land acquisition is essentially complete. The completed work consists of outlet works, Jansen reservoir, cemetery relocation, relocation of county road (Phase I), site preparation contract and some utility contracts. The progress on the embankment, spillway and other facilities contract is continuing and is about 26 percent complete. A contract was awarded for the relocation of Colorado State Highway #12 and work was started June 4, 1973. 12. TWO RIVERS DAM, N. MEX. Location. About 14 miles southwest of Roswell, N. Mex., on Rio Hondo. Rio Hondo is formed at confluence of Rio Ruidoso and Rio Bonito, near village of Hondo, N. Mex., in foothills region of Sierra Blanca in southeastern part of Lincoln County, N. Mex., and flows generally easterly to its confluence with Pecos River near Roswell, N. Mex. (See Geological Survey Map, Hondo Reservoir quadrangle, scale 1:24,000.) Existing project. Two earthfill dams, Diamond "A" Dam on Rio Hondo at about river mile 34 and Rocky Dam on Rocky Arroyo at about river mile 10, which will form Two Rivers Reservoir. Diamond "A" Dam is 98 feet high and 4,885 feet long and Rocky Dam is 118 feet high and 2,940 feet long. Topography of site permits use of two natural saddles in limestone on rim of reservoir for spillways which have a total length of 1,130 feet. One of the spillway saddles is between the dams and one is south of Rocky Dam. There is a gated outlet works structure in Diamond "A" Dam and an uncontrolled outlet in Rocky Dam. No provision is made for storage except for flood control. Flood releases will be controlled insofar as possible, so that flows through Roswell will not 17-11 REPORT OF THE CHIEF OF ENGINEERS, U.S. ARMY 1973 exceed channel capacity of Rio Hondo, which is about 1,000 cubic feet per second. Capacity of Two Rivers Reservoir at spillway crest is 166,200 acre-feet, of which 18,000 acre-feet are provided for sedimentation reserve, but which will be utilized for flood control until filled with sediment. Dam controls 963 square miles of drainage area on Rio Hondo and 64 square miles on Rocky Arroyo, a total of 1,027 square miles. Federal cost was $4,790,838. (See Table 17-B for authorizing legislation.) Local cooperation. Complied with. Total cost to local interests was $144,000, of which $60,000 was for construction of access road and $84,000 for lands and rights-of-way. Operations and results during fiscal year. Ordinary maintenance and operation continued. The reservoir was empty on July 1, 1972. Reservoir was regulated or flood control during the periods, August 26-30, 1972, September 1-22, 1972, October 22-24, 1972, and April 9-13, 1973. None of the flows were of sufficient magnitude to have caused significant damages without the project. The maximum pool elevation at Diamond "A" Dam was 3,982.35 feet with a corresponding storage of 416 acre-feet. The maximum pool elevation at Rocky Dam was 3,- 948.30 feet with a corresponding storage of 30 acre-feet. Maximum pool elevations occurred on September 9, 1972. Sediment deposition during the year was 1,190 acre-feet. The reservoir was empty on June 30, 1973. Estimated total accumulated flood damages prevented through fiscal year 1972 were $2,212,000. Condition at end of fiscal year. Project is complete and was placed in operation July 1963. 13. INSPECTION OF COMPLETED FLOOD CONTROL PROJECTS Included under this heading is inspection of completed flood control projects transferred to local interests for operation and maintenance. Projects in Colorado and New Mexico were inspected. Fiscal year cost was $6,046 and total cost to June 30, 1973, was $59,830. 14. SCHEDULING FLOOD CONTROL RESERVOIR OPERATIONS Pursuant to section 7, Flood Control Act of 1944, expenditures were made for scheduling flood control reservoir operations and preparation of reservoir regulation manual for Platoro Dam on Conejos River near town of Platoro, Conejos County, Colo. Platoro Dam was authorized by Interior Appropriation Act of 1941 (see H. Doc. 693, 76th Cong., 3d sess.). Construction of project was completed by Bureau of Reclamation in fiscal year 1952. Reservoir elevation July 1, 1972 was 9,947.4 feet with a corresponding storage of 4,400 acre-feet. The reservoir was held at that approximate elevation until November 2, 1972. Release of water from storage, in accordance with Rio Grande Compact requirements, was started on November 2, 1972 and continued through November 5, 1972 at which time the elevation was 9,942.1 feet and the corresponding storage was 2,900 acre-feet. The project was unattended during the winter and by April 13, 1973 the pool elevation had increased to 9,948.0 feet with corresponding storage of 4,600 acre-feet. During the spring runoff, the reservoir was operated for flood control during the periods May 11-15, May 19-27, June 10-15, and June 20-30, 1973. Operation of the reservoir reduced the peak at Mogote, Colorado from 3,150 c.f.s. under natural conditions to an actual peak of 2,635 c.f.s. on June 10, 1973 and reduced the peak at Otowi on June 20, 1973 by 250 c.f.s. The pool elevation on June 30, 1973 was 9,998.8 with a corresponding storage of 31,300 acre-feet. Total accumulated flood damages prevented were $963,000 through FY 1972. Fiscal year costs were $996 and total costs to June 30, 1973, were $49,775. 15. OTHER AUTHORIZED FLOOD CONTROL PROJECTS See Table 17-E. 16.

Fort Peck Lake was operated in conjunction with the other Missouri River reservoirs for flood control, navigation, power production, and other multiple- purpose uses. Generating facilities produced 1,176,434,000 net kilowatt-hours of electricity. Total cost of Operation and Maintenance during the Fiscal Year was $2,542,000 however, reimbursement from the Bureau of Reclamation for the pro rata share cost of Operation and Maintenance of the powerplant, reimbursement for furnishing operators' village facilities, and property disposals reduced net cost to $1,290,800. Condition at end of fiscal year. Work started on original project in October 1933 and on second power plant in August 1956. The project is complete. On 30 June 1973, the pool was at elevation 2238.5 and 16,439,000 acre-feet of water was impounded in the reservoir. 2. MISSOURI RIVER, SIOUX CITY, IOWA TO RULO, NEBR. Location. Jefferson, Madison, and Gallatin Rivers conjoin at Three Forks, Mont., to form Missouri River, which flows southeasterly 2,315.1 miles (1960 mileage) across or along seven states to Mississippi River, 17 miles above St. Louis. River is boundary between states of Missouri, Kansas, Nebraska, and Iowa. For description see page 1149, Annual Report for 1932. Previous projects. For details see page 1893, Annual Report for 1915, and page 1175, Annual Report for 1938. Existing Project. Provides for a channel of 9-foot depth and width not less than 300 feet, to be obtained by revetment of banks, construction of rock dikes to contract and stabilize waterway, cutoffs to eliminate long bends, closing minor channels, removal of snags and dredging as required. Estimated cost of new work Sioux City to Rulo, Nebr. (July 1973) is $190,450,000, exclusive of amounts expended on previous projects. (See table 21-C for authorizing legislation, and table 21-E for Terminal Facilities.) Operations and results during fiscal year. Regular Funds, New Work: Consisted of construction, by contract, of 7,947 linear feet of dikes and 17,534 linear feet of stone fill revetments; 20,000 cubic yards of point removal for channel correction; construction of one river site recreational area; no new work construction was accomplished with hired labor forces. Regular Funds, Maintenance: Consisted of construction, by contract, of restoring and replacement of 18,334 linear feet of dikes and 238,852 linear feet of stone fill revetments. Work by hired labor forces consisted of 61,400 cubic yards of point removal for channel correction; 28,370 tons of stone salvaged from obsolete structures to repair 9,450 linear feet of dikes and revetments; 4,100 tons of stone stockpiled for future repair work; 1,014 unsightly piles cut and removed; and 20,500 tons of debris removed. Condition at end of fiscal year. Construction was initiated on this section of the project (Sioux City to Rulo) in fiscal year 1928; and the scheduled completion date is fiscal year 1976 for Bank Stabilization and fiscal year 1977 for the Recreation Feature. The work was approximately 94.2 percent complete at end of the fiscal year. Work remaining to complete this section of project (Sioux City to Rulo) consists of construction of additional bank stabilization structures, strengthening of existing structures to improve their effectiveness and to prevent their deterioration prior to final stabilization of banks, refinement construction consisting of minor dike and revetment extensions and underwater sills to redistribute flow velocities, in order to develop more stable navigation project dimensions, and construction of recreation facilities. A reliable channel suitable for navigation is available through this section. Controlling depth at ordinary stages of the river is 8 1/2 feet, with additional depths available during high stages. Commercial navigation was inaugurated on this section in May 1939, and common carrier transportation service was inaugurated in October 1946. Seven river 21-2 OMAHA, NEBR., DISTRICT side recreational sites are completed and in operation, two of these are proposing to enlarge their areas to provide camping facilities. (See table 21-B for total cost of work under existing project to June 30, 1972.) 3. OTHER AUTHORIZED NAVIGATION PROJECTS See table 21-D. 4. NAVIGATION WORK UNDER SPECIAL AUTHORIZATION Small Navigation Projects Not Specifically Authorized by Congress (Sec. 107 of the River and Harbor Act of 1960, as amended, Public Law 645, 86th Congress). Negative reconnaissance reports were submitted for Carter Lake Canal and Dodge Park Marina, Omaha, Nebraska at a cost of $1,141 and $2,446, respectively. Flood Control 5. BEAR CREEK LAKE, COLO. Location. Damsite is on Bear Creek in Jefferson County, Colorado about 8 miles above the confluence of Bear Creek with the South Platte River at Denver. Existing project. Project consists of an earthfill dam 170 feet high, with a crest length of about 5,120 feet, and a supplementary earthfill dike with a height of 80 feet and a crest length of 1,930 feet, to the south of the main dam, and an uncontrolled earth and rock-cut emergency spillway. The lake will provide storage capacity of 26,290 acre-feet for flood control and 2,000 acre-feet for sediment and recreation. Authorized by 1968 Flood Control Act (Senate Document 87, 90th Congress). Estimated cost is $55,800,000 (July 1973) of which $305,000 is future non-Federal reimbursement for recreation cost sharing. Other non-Federal costs, for acquisition of water for recreation pool, are estimated at $240,000. Local cooperation. Local interests will be required to: a. In accordance with the Federal Water Project Recreation Act: (1) administer land and water areas for recreation and fish and wildlife enhancement; (2) pay, contribute in kind, or repay with interest, one-half of the separable cost allocated to recreation and fish and wildlife enhancement; (3) bear all costs of operation, maintenance, and replacement of recreation and fish and wildlife lands and facilities including water replacement; (4) provide the water required for initial filling and replenishment of evaporation losses of the recreation pool by purchase or other means consistent with Federal and State laws, to assure effective operation of the project for recreation and fish and wildlife enhancement; b. hold and save the United States free from damages due to water-rights claims resulting from construction and operation of the project; c. prevent encroachment on the flow-carrying capacity of the channel below the reservoir to the extent necessary to provide for effective reservoir operation in the interest of flood control; d. adequately inform affected interests, at least annually, that the project will not provide complete flood protection; and e. provide guidance and leadership in preventing unwise and uneconomical future development of the flood plain areas by encouraging prudent management techniques to reduce future flood losses. Operations and results during fiscal year. Design studies continued by hired labor. General Design Memorandum completed. Land acquisition initiated. Condition at end of fiscal year. Design studies in progress. Plans and specifications being prepared for initial construction contract. 6. BIG SIOUX RIVER AT SIOUX CITY, IOWA AND S. DAK. Location. Near mouth of Big Sioux River in the vicinity of Sioux City, Woodbury County, Iowa and North Sioux City, Union County, South Dakota. Existing project. The project consists of excavating a new channel from the Missouri River to the Interstate Highway No. 29 Bridge to eliminate the sharp bend immediately downstream from the bridge. The reach of the existing channel downstream from the Interstate Highway Bridge would be abandoned. Project was authorized by the Flood Control Act of 1968, (Senate Document 94, 90th Congress). Estimated cost of the improvement $5,090,000 (July 1973), of which $4,830,000 is Federal cost and $260,000 is non-Federal cost. Local cooperation. Section 3 of the Flood Control Act approved 22 June 1936 applies. At a regular meeting of the City Council of Sioux City on 21 November 1966, the Council passed a resolution expressing a willingness and an ability to furnish the required local cooperation. The Union County Commissioners, Union County, South Dakota, have endorsed the project and provided resolutions which indicate their cooperation and willingness to furnish the necessary local cooperation for the South Dakota portion of the improvement. 21-3 REPORT OF THE CHIEF OF ENGINEERS, U.S. ARMY 1973 Operation and results during fiscal year. Preparation of the General Design Memorandum continued. Condition at end of fiscal year. General Design Memorandum was about 61 percent complete. 7. BILLINGS, MONT. Location. At Billings and vicinity on Yellowstone River, Mont., 346 river miles upstream from its confluence with the Missouri River. Existing project. The original plan as authorized by the 1950 Flood Control Act (H. Doc. 216, 81st Cong. 1st sess.) consisted of a system of channels and levees by means of which floodwaters approaching the city from the west, east and south would be diverted away from the area subject to flooding.

CONSTRUCTION OF LOCKS AND DAMS ON OHIO RIVER Location. Ohio River is formed by junction of Allegheny and Monongahela Rivers at Pittsburgh, Pa., and flows generally southwesterly for 981 miles to join Mississippi River near Cairo, Ill. For description of river see page 1227, 1932 Annual Report. Previous projects. For details see page 1907 of Annual Report for 1915. Existing project. Provides for improvement of entire river by construction of locks and dams to provide a channel depth of 9 feet and for widenming Louisville and Portland Canal at Louisville, Ky. Project provides for a lock with usable dimensions of 110 by 600 feet at each of the dams and, in addition, an auxiliary lock 56 by 360 feet is available at Emsworth, Dashields, Montgomery, and McAlpine locks and dams with an auxiliary lock at Gallipolis being 110 by 360 feet. Dashields is a fixed dam, while Emsworth, Montgomery, and Gallipolis are fixed dams with movable crests.

Navigation system of 27 locks and dams is in operation and 9-foot navigation throughout length of river is generally available at all times. At certain unstable bars project depth is maintained by dredging, supplemented by contraction works. (See "Open 22-3 REPORT OF THE CHIEF OF ENGINEERS, U.S. ARMY 1973 channel work, Ohio River.") Table 22-D shows cost and year of completion of locks and dams now in operation. Existing project does not provide adequate facilities for present-day navigation due to obsolescence of structures. Since repair and modernization of these facilities would be extremely costly, replacement and reconstruction is being accomplished as rapidly as funds are made available for the purpose. Construction of lock and dam replacement program was initiated in fiscal year 1955. New Cumberland, Pike Island, Belleville, Racine, Greenup, Captain Anthony Meldahl, Markland, McAlpine, and Cannelton replacement locks and dams are in operation, replacing 27 old low-lift locks and dams. Construction of Hannibal locks and dam to replace locks and dams 12, 13 and 14 was initiated in fiscal year 1966; Newburgh locks and dam to replace locks and dams 46 and 47 and Uniontown locks and dam to replace locks and dams 48 and 49 were initiated in fiscal year 1965 and Smithland locks and dam to replace locks and dams 50 and 51 was initiated in fiscal year 1971. For total cost of existing project, see table 22-B. 2. OPEN CHANNEL WORK, OHIO RIVER Location. Under jurisdiction of district engineer in whose district the work is located. Portion of river included in project extends 974.7 miles from head of river at Pittsburgh, Pa., to mouth of Cache River (Mound City, Ill.). Open channel improvement from mouth of Cache River to mouth of Ohio River is under jurisdiction of Mississippi River Commission. Existing project. Before completion of canalization project, no project dept had been fixed by Congress under project for open channel work, but in order to properly aid packet and barge navigation it was necessary to secure a low-water channel with a minimum depth of from 4 to 6 feet, and a width, depending upon difficulty of running channel, of from 400 to 600 feet; also to permit movement of large coal tows, which movement occurred at stages of water exceeding 10 feet, it was necessary to remove points of projecting bars which formed at various locations along river. Accomplishment of this purpose involved concentration of current by closing back channels at islands with low dams, contraction and straightening wide, open channels by low dikes, dredging bars and shoals, and removal of snags and wrecks. Incidental to direct improvement of Ohio River is construction and maintenance of ice piers as required for protection of river craft. Stage of extreme high water on Ohio River varies from 46 feet at Pittsburgh, Pa., to 80 feet at Cincinnati, Ohio, with 57.2 feet at Louisville, Ky. (head of falls), 53.8 feet at Evansville, Ind., and 59.5 feet at Cairo, Ill. (mouth of river). Estimated cost of new work (1960) is $16,160,000, exclusive of following items which are considered inactive: Ice piers authorized by 1927 River and Harbor Act; reforestation of sloughs on Kentucky Peninsula near Evansville, Ind., authorized by 1930 River and Harbor Act; dredging to widen channel at certain points; and placing revetment at various points. Estimated cost of these items (1954) is $6,565,000. Operation of snag boats on Ohio River below Pennsylvania State line was included in project July 1, 1935, under provisions of Permanent Appropriations Repeal Act of June 26, 1934. See table 22-E for authorizing legislation. Local cooperation. River and Harbor Act of January 21, 1927, authorizing construction of ice piers for general open channel work, imposes condition that before work is begun on any pier, local interests convey to the United States free of cost such riparian rights as may be deemed necessary in connection with the improvement at locality (H. Doc. 187, 67th Cong., 2d sess.). Existing ice piers are adequate for present purposes and local cooperation is not needed since no additional construction is under consideration. River and Harbor Act of July 3, 1930, provides for reforestation of sloughs of Kentucky Peninsula and bank protection and that no expense shall be incurred by the United States for acquiring lands required for purpose of this improvement (H. Doc. 409, 69th Cong., 1st sess.). However, since no serious overbank erosion has occurred since bank revetment in 1933-34, reforestation is not considered justifiable at this time and no local cooperation is required. Operations and results during fiscal year. Operation and maintenance, general: Dredging, where required to provide an adequate and dependable channel of project depth at minimum pool conditions, was executed. Dike and revetments maintained and routine work of maintaining navigation aids, removing snags, making channel studies, hydrographic surveys and mapping was performed as required. Channel soundings, hydrographic surveys, stream gaging operations, channel inspections and aids to navigation, and miscellaneous inspections and reports cost $712,512. Dredging by hired labor: Huntington District 538,790 cubic yards at $263,650 and Louisville District, 2,224,287 cubic yards at $635,096, and dredging by contract: Pittsburgh District 47,084 cubic yards at $131,641; Huntington District 122,581 cubic yards at $111,806; and Louisville District 520,777 cubic yards at $197,- 010. Contract repair of the revetment at Kentucky Peninsula was accomplished in the fiscal year at a cost of $50,349. 22-4 OHIO RIVER Condition at end of fiscal year. New work under this project is substantially complete, since it is not anticipated that work on inactive portion of project will be accomplished. In addition to dredging, local stabilization of channel has been effected at various points by construction of dikes and revetment. Work which remains consists of dredging to widen channels at certain points to project depth. 22-5 REPORT OF THE CHIEF OF ENGINEERS, U.S. ARMY 1973 TABLE 22-A COST AND FINANCIAL STATEMENT See Section Total Cost to in Text Project Funding FY 70 FY 71 FY 72 FY 73 June 30, 1973 1.

AND KY. Location. Formed by junction of Poor and Clover Forks in Harlan County, Ky., about 694.2 miles above its mouth, and flows west to Burnside, Ky., from whence it makes a loop southwestward into Tennessee, passes Nashville, and returns northwestward to Kentucky, emptying into Ohio River near Smithland, Ky. (See Geological Survey base maps of Tennessee and Kentucky.) Previous projects. For details see pages 1898 and 1901 of Annual Report for 1915, and page 1208 of Annual Report for 1938. * All cost and financial statements for projects are listed at the end of this chapter. All other tables are referenced in text and also appear at the end of this chapter. 23-1 REPORT OF THE CHIEF OF ENGINEERS, U.S. ARMY 1973 Existing project. Below Nashville: For information concerning construction of locks and dams A, B, C, D, E and F, required dredging and related costs to secure 6 foot navigation, see pages 1069 and 1070 of Annual Report for 1962. Improvement of Cumberland River between mouth and Nashville was authorized for 9-foot navigation; increased project depth to be obtained by construction of three moderate height dams with lockage facilities, designated as Kuttawa (Eureka), Dover, and Cheatham, to replace existing locks A to F inclusive below Nashville and lock 1 above Nashville. (See table 23-B for authorizing legislation.) Subsequent authorities provided for construction of hydroelectric power- generating facilities at Cheatham Dam, river mile 148.7, and modification of project for navigation on Cumberland River, Tenn. and Ky., to provide, in lieu of previously authorized works at Kuttawa, mile 32.2, and Dover, mile 100.1, for construction of a multiple-purpose improvement consisting of a dam, lock, and powerplant near mile 30.6 on lower Cumberland River and a canal for navigation and other purposes connecting this reservoir with reservoir formed by Kentucky Dam on the Tennessee River. The project is known as Barkley Dam and Lake Barkley. Provision of interconnecting canal, involving excavation of a channel through narrow watershed divide about 2.5 miles upstream from damsite, permits alternative routes available for navigation between either Cumberland or Tennessee Rivers and Ohio River, and affords integrated operation of Barkley and Kentucky Reservoirs through diversion of flows in interests of flood control and power production. Estimated cost of modified project for 9-foot navigation and multiple-purpose development is 176,- 975,000 (July 1972). (See table 23-C for listing of principal features.) Under flood conditions as regulated by upstream reservoirs, extreme fluctuation in stage of river below Nashville, Tenn., varies at different localities from about 16 to 55 feet above minimum pool levels. Ordinary fluctuations vary with power flows from as much as the allowable 3-foot drawdown below normal pool elevation 385 at Cheatham Lock and Dam to a range of about 7 feet at Nashville. Seasonal variation in normal headwater levels at Lake Barkley is 5 feet, which in combination with power flows produces fluctuations up to 10 feet below Cheatham Lock and Dam. Above Nashville: See pages 1693 thru 1696 of Annual Report for 1950 for information including statistical data on locks and dams 1 to 17 and 21. Completion information is shown on pages 1454 of the report for 1951. See Table 23-B for Authorizing Legislation. Construction of Old Hickory, Carthage, and Celina Dams above Nashville was also authorized for navigation and power. The dam and reservoir authorized for construction on Cumberland River near Carthage, Tenn., has been redesignated as Cordell Hull Dam and Reservoir. Cost of Old Hickory and Cordell Hull projects, including locks, is estimated as $128,867,700 (July 1972). Estimated cost of Celina Dam (1959) is $39,100,000. (See table 23-C at end of chapter for listing of principal features.) Under flood conditions as presently regulated, including effect of surcharge operation of Old Hickory project, extreme fluctuations of stage in this section of river vary from a range of 35 feet at Nashville (mile 191) to a maximum of 46 feet immediately below Old Hickory Dam (mile 216.2), and from an 8-foot variation in headwater at dam to 36 feet in vicinity of Carthage, Tenn., (mile 313.5), present head of navigation; with variations up to 35 feet at Celina, Tenn. (mile 380.8) and 29 feet in tailwater at Wolf Creek Dam (mile 460.9). Maximum fluctuations under ordinary conditions from power flows vary from about 7 feet at Nashville to 14 and 3 feet, respectively, in tailwater and headwater of Old Hickory Dam, and at other key points as follows: 13 feet at Carthage; 18 feet at Celina; and 19 feet at Wolf Creek Dam. Further details on project authorization for river sections below and above Nashville are shown on Table 23-B. Local cooperation. Fully complied with for 6-foot navigation project. Under modified project for 9-foot navigation and multiple-purpose development, recreation features of reservoir components are subject to certain conditions of non-Federal cost-sharing under Federal Water Project Recreation Act of 1965. Terminal facilities. There are 34 terminals on the Cumberland River (1 municipally owned and open for public use; 3 government owned facilities and 30 privately owned facilities). A total of 21 terminals have railroad connections. Principal commodities handled are petroleum products, sand, gravel, coal, coke, iron and steel. Seven terminals are set up to handle various types of commodities. Facilities considered adequate for existing commerce. For further information see page 695 of Annual Report for 1969. Operations and results during fiscal year. New work: Below Nashville: Construction of two comfort stations at Eddyville and Cadiz sites, Lake Barkley, was accomplished during FY 1973. Also, contract for construction of public use facilities at Hurricane Creek site was awarded near end of fiscal year. Preparation of plans and specifications for the latter work was performed by contract. Costs for new work were $163,315. 23-2 NASHVILLE, TENN., DISTRICT Above Nashville: Work at Old Hickory Project involves contract for furnishing and installing picnic tables and grills at Bledsoe Creek Site. Similar work was accomplished by hired labor at Cages Bend site. Contracts for Phase III clearing, cemetery relocation and construction of left bank facilities at the damsite area, Cordell Hull Project, were completed during FY1973. Construction of powerplant, fish barrier dam, roads, parking areas, and ramps for six sites and recreation facilities at one site were continued. Contracts for channel dredging and construction of public use facilities at three sites were awarded during latter part of FY 1973. Miscellaneous items of work under various features were accomplished by hired labor. Acquisition activities were continued and action completed on 84 acres. Costs for new work were $6,283,765. Operation and maintenance: Barkley, Cheatham, and Old Hickory locks and dams were operated as required. The lock at Cordell Hull was made available for operation in March 1973. Maintenance and improvement operations at Barkley include construction of four mooring cells (mile 29.9 and mile 53.6). Painting of upstream side of spillway gates and installation of tow haulage unit was initiated in FY 1973 and scheduled for completion in FY 1974. Contract for providing equipment storage shed was awarded during latter part of FY 1973. Work at Cheatham includes repairs to turbine number two which involves replacement of blade operating rod. This work was initiated in May 1973 and completed in September 1973. The substation for the new lock power transformer was energized and the transformer placed in service. Riprap was placed on the left bank below Cheatham powerhouse to prevent further damage by high tailwater flows. Also, construction of two mooring cells at mile 150.2, Cumberland River, was completed. Remodeling of sewage treatment plants at Old Hickory project was completed and valve discharge warning system was installed. Contract for painting switchyard steel was started in FY 1973 and scheduled for completion in FY 1974. Contract for resurfacing of project site roads and parking area below dam on left bank was awarded during latter part of FY 1973. Only minor maintenance on the Cordell Hull lock was required. Operation of powerplants was continuous except for normal interruptions and necessary shutdowns for inspection, repair and maintenance purposes. Total net energy generated at Barkley Dam (889,899,243 kw-hr) was made available through Department of the Interior to the Tennessee Valley Authority, Southern Illinois Power Cooperative, Big Rivers Rural Electric Cooperative Corporation, and Indiana Statewide Rural Electric Cooperative, Inc., Hoosier Energy Division. Total net energy generated at Cheatham Dam (172,888,600 kw-hr) and Old Hickory Dam (659,560,550 kw-hr) was made available for distribution. Power revenues were $2,354,765, $1,059,644, and $2,001,550, respectively. Benefits attributable to Barkley effect in reduction of flood flows on Cumberland and lower Ohio and Mississippi River during year are estimated as $4,736,100. Activities under reservoir management program comprising malaria control, shoreline sanitation, land management and disposal, and maintenance of public-use facilities continued. Channel snagging and dredging was done by hired labor. Condition at end of fiscal year. Below Nashville: Construction of Cheatham lock and dam was completed in November 1960. See page 1078 of 1962 Annual Report for chronology of construction. Acquisition for Barkley project includes 70,549 acres in fee, 24,327 acres in easements and 7,339 acres under use permit; project is about 99 percent complete and in full operation. Lock was opened to navigation on July 8, 1964. The four power units were placed in commercial operation January 21, February 4, March 7, and March 30, 1966. Work remaining consists mainly of construction of recreation facilities. Total new work costs for this section to June 30, 1973, were $179,462,859 including $685,000 public works funds. Above Nashville: Old Hickory project provides a through channel for 9-foot navigation on the Cumberland above Nashville to vicinity of Carthage, Tenn., at river mile 313.5. Lock and dam 8, placed in an inoperative status November 30, 1951, was inundated with partial impoundment of Cordell Hull Reservoir. Full impoundment during FY 1973 extends the 9-foot waterway to Celina, river mile 380.8. Old Hickory project was completed for full beneficial use December 1957 with placement of last power unit in commercial operation. Further details are given on page 1080 of Annual Report for 1962. Construction of Cordell Hull project, started May 1963, is 92 percent complete, see "New Work above Nashville", for detail of work currently underway. Total lands acquired 27,113 acres (26,663 in fee and 450 acres in easements), represent 99 percent of project requirements. Total new work costs for this section to June 30, 1973, were $123,889,523. Operation and maintenance of structures: Barkley, Cheatham, Cordell Hull, and Old Hickory locks were in operation at end of year; structures, channels, and appurtenances were maintained in serviceable condition. Total costs of existing project for entire stream were $350,018,701, of which $303,352,382 (including $685,000 from public works funds) were for new work and $46,666, 319 for operation and maintenance. Surplus property valued at $83,558 was 23-3 REPORT OF THE CHIEF OF ENGINEERS, U.S. ARMY 1973 transferred from project without reimbursement. Benefits attributable to reduction of flood flows by the Barkley project to date amount to $8,- 160,800. Power revenues received to date: Barkley, $15,702,000; Cheatham, $11,530,000; and Old Hickory, $25,294,000. 3. TENNESSEE RIVER, TENN., ALA., AND KY. Location. Formed by junction of French Broad and Holston Rivers in eastern Tennessee, 4.4 miles above Gay Street Bridge at Knoxville, flows southwest into northern Alabama, thence in a generally westerly course across north Alabama, to northeast boundary of Mississippi, thence nearly due north across Tennessee and Kentucky, entering Ohio River at Paducah, 652.1 miles from junction of French Broad and Holston Rivers. (See Geological survey base map of Tennessee River Basin.) Previous projects. For details see pages 1902-1906, Annual Report for 1915; pages 1190-1194, 1196-1216, and 1220-1222, Annual Report for 1929; and page 1216, Annual Report for 1938. Existing project. Originally provided for permanent improvement of river for a navigable depth of 9 feet at low water from mouth about 650 miles to Knoxville, Tenn. Only work performed by the Corps was construction of lock at General Joe Wheeler Dam and miscellaneous appurtenant improvements at a new work cost of $2,244,236. Tennessee Valley Authority program provided for obtaining authorized 9-foot project by construction of high dams and locks and utilization of certain locks and dams previously constructed under jurisdiction of the Corps. (See Table 23-B for Authorizing Legislation.) Subsequent construction by that agency of Melton Hill Dam extends navigable channel of Tennessee River system up the Clinch River about 38 miles above damsite (mile 23.1) to vicinity of Clinton, Tenn. (See table 23-D on Tennessee River.) In accordance with general navigation laws placing control and supervision over navigable waters under direction of Secretary of the Army, Corps of Engineers operates and maintains all locks, and maintains navigation channels and safety harbors by performing all necessary maintenance dredging and snagging operations. For information concerning other functions of the Corps under division of responsibilities for Tennessee River since adoption of Tennessee Valley Authority Act of 1933, see page 1084 of Annual Report for 1962. Local cooperation. Authorization requires no local cooperation in construction of alternate system of low dams. It does, however, provide that if high dams are built before the United States builds projected locks and low dams which are to be replaced, the United States shall contribute to cost of substituted structures an amount equal to estimated cost of works of navigation for which substitution is made. Terminal facilities. There are 148 terminals on the Tennessee River (10 municipally or state owned, 21 government owned facilities and 117 privately owned facilities). A total of 68 terminals have railroad connections. Principal commodities handled are petroleum products, sand, gravel, coal, coke, grain, chemicals, iron, steel, and grain. Twenty-three terminals handle various types of commodities. Facilities considered adequate for existing commerce. A list of terminals is revised annually and can be obtained from Division Engineer, Ohio River Division, Corps of Engineers, Cincinnati, Ohio. For further information see page 698 of Annual Report for 1969. Operations and results during fiscal year. Channel work by government plant and hired labor consisted of dredging and snagging at various locations, dredging safety harbors and access channels, and maintenance and replacement of pile dolphins in safety harbors. Fleet work also included dredging of forebays and cleaning powerhouse trashracks, and dredging lock chambers and lower approaches. Cost of channel maintenance was $105,874. Operation and maintenance of structures: All locks were operated and lock appurtenances and standby plant maintained as required. Major maintenance work includes mechanical repairs to the gate and valve operating machinery at Kentucky lock, Guntersville lock, Fort Loudoun lock, Wilson lock and Wheeler Auxiliary lock, repairs to upper and lower gates at Chickamauga lock.

For details see page 922 of Annual Report for 1967. Flood Control 7. MARTINS FORK LAKE, KY. Location. Dam planned at mile 15.6 on Martins Fork of Clover Fork, Cumberland River, about 9 miles southeast of city of Harlan, with reservoir extending about 6 miles upstream within Harlan County, southeastern Kentucky. Existing project. Multiple-purpose improvement combining flood control with water quality control and recreation development adopted by 1965 Flood Control Act (H. Doc. 244, 89th Cong.), in general accordance with recommendations. Dam will be concrete type, about 504 feet long and rising 97 feet above streambed. Outlet works provide for release of water from reservoir at varying levels. Drainage area above damsite is 55.7 square miles. At full pool level, spillway crest at elevation 1341 above mean sea level, reservoir will cover 578 acres and contain 21,120 acre-feet of storage capacity. Provision is made for 17,450 acre-feet of reservoir capacity between elevations 1341 and 1300 for control of floods in winter and spring season, and 14,360 acre-feet (El. 1341-1310) during summer and fall, in conjunction with which storage of 3,090 acre-feet would be available on a seasonal basis to meet streamflow requirements for water quality control and fish life below the dam. A minimum permanent pool of 3,670 acre-feet, 274 acres in extent, will thus be provided during potential flood seasons; and during late spring and summer when flood storage can be reduced, the lake is to be operated generally at a higher level (El. 1310) to maintain a larger surface area of 340 acres for recreation and to provide the required seasonal storage for releases of water during critical low-flow periods. Project will prevent major portion of average annual flood losses at Harlan and result in significant stage reductions with related benefits along rural reaches and at other urban areas downstream. Estimated cost of project, including planned initial recreation development, is $11,500,000 (July 1972). Local cooperation. Federal Water Project Recreation Act of 1965 applies in regard to non-Federal participation min recreation development, in addition to which local interests are to provide certain safeguards to ensure functioning of reservoir as intended. At this time, assurances have not been received for any non-Federal participation in the recreational development on this project as required under P.L. 89-72. Therefore, initially recreation will not be developed to the full potential and only minimum facilities will be provided. Operations and results during fiscal year.

GREEN AND BARREN RIVERS, KY. Location. Green River rises in Casey County, Ky., flows northwesterly 370 miles, and empties into Ohi River about 8 miles above Evansville, Ind. Barren River rises in Monroe County, Ky., flows northwesterly 130 miles, and empties into Green River one-half mile above lock 4 and 149.5 miles above mouth of Green River. Existing project. Six locks and dams on Green River and one on Barren River to give, with channel work in pools of dams, a navigable depth of 9 feet and width of 200 feet from Ohio River to mile 103 Green River, 3.2 miles upstream from Paradise, Ky.; a navigable depth of 5.5 feet from mile 103 Green River to Mammoth Cave, Ky., mile 197.8 Green River, and from mouth of Barren River mile 149.5 Green River, to Bowling Green, Ky., mile 30.1 Barren River. (See table 24-C for principal data concerning locks and dams.) Fluctuations in stage vary considerably at different locks. At lock 3, Green River, ordinary high stages are from 12 to 15 feet above pool level, and at lock 1, Barren River, from 7 to 10 feet above pool. Maximum stages of record are 34 feet above normal pool stage at lock 3, Green River, and 29 feet at lock 1, Barren River, obtained during floods of 1937 and 1913, respectively. (See table 24-B for authorizing legislation.) Local cooperation. Fully complied with. Terminal facilities. Considered adequate for existing commerce. (See table 24-D on terminal facilities.) Operations and results during fiscal year. Consisted of operation and maintenance of locks and dams, I to 3, Green River, maintenance of lock 4, Green River and lock and dam 1, Barren River, and removal of shoals, snags, and slides as required to maintain adequate channel for existing traffic between mouth of Green River and dam 4 at mile 149 Green River. Maintenance items consisting of purchase and installation of stiffleg derricks and bulkheads for emergency closure, and steel gates, upper and lower sections for locks 1 and 2; installation of sewage treatment facilities at locks 1, 2, and 3, and remodeling and reconditioning floating mooring bitts at locks 1 and 2 were completed, all Green River. Condition at end of fiscal year. Locks and dams I and 2, Green River, and lock and dam 1, Barren River, were in good condition. Lock and dam 3 and lock 4, Green River were in poor condition. Dam 4, Green River, failed May 24, 1965, when 120 feet washed out. Breach later widened, and repairs are deferred pending completion of survey report for navigation on Green River. Pool of dam 1, Barren River, is maintained for local small boat use, but navigation through lock is suspended because of loss of lower pool. Operation of locks 5 and 6, Green River, was discontinued August 1951, as they were no longer used by river traffic. Controlling project depth in lower 103 miles of Green River is 9 feet; controlling depth from mile 103 to Bowling Green, Ky. is 5.5 feet. Under permit issued by District Engineer on August 20, 1963, private interests dredged channel of Green River to extend 9-foot depth to coal loading terminal at mile 105.7. Channel of Green River from mouth of Barren River at mile 149.5 to Mammoth Cave, Ky., at mile 197.8, is no longer maintained and is blocked by deactivated locks and dams 5 and 6. 3. KENTUCKY RIVER, KY. Location. Formed by confluence of its North and Middle Forks about 4 miles east of Beattyville in east central Kentucky, (South Fork joining the main stream at that place), flows 24-2 .. , - -- LOUISVILLE, KY., DISTRICT northwesterly and empties into Ohio River at Carrollton, Ky., mile 545.8 below Pittsburgh, Pa. (See Geological Survey Chart for State of Kentucky; scale 1:500,000.) Existing project. Provides for 14 locks and fixed dams to give, in connection with improvement of Ohio River, slack water navigation of 6 feet minimum depth from Ohio River to points on the three forks a short distance above Beattyville, Ky. Length of 6-foot-depth project on main system of Kentucky River is 258.6 miles to confluence of Middle and North Forks. Cost of completed new work is $4,176,749. River frequently rises to 35 feet high or more. Extreme height at lock I due to flood backwater from Ohio River is 60.3 feet, while extreme floods reach height of 47.6 feet at lock 4, and 35.5 feet at lock 14. At some intermediate locks extreme height of floods exceeds 40 feet. All flood heights refer to upper pool gages. Existing project was adopted by 1879 River and Harbor Act (H. Ex.

ALLEGHENY RIVER, PA. Location. Rises in northern Pennsylvania, flows northwestward into New York, thence generally southwestward to Pittsburgh, Pa., where it joins with Monongahela River to form the Ohio. It is 325 miles long. (See Geological Survey Charts for western Pennsylvania and southwestern New York.) Existing project. Provides for eight locks and dams to afford slack-water navigation from Pittsburgh, Pa., 72 miles to above East Brady, Pa. Controlling depth through canalized portion is 9 feet at normal pool level, and channel width varies from minimum of 200 feet to full width of river at mouth. Cost of new work for completed project is $18,157,860. (See tables 26-B and 26-C for authorizing legislation and locks of dams on Allegheny River, Pa.) Local cooperation. Fully complied with. Terminal facilities. City of Pittsburgh constructed a modern wharf for river freight. There are numerous privately maintained terminals and docks, consisting of tipples, various types of hoists, chutes, and pipelines for use in loading and unloading coal, stone, sand, gravel, petroleum products, steel products, and other commodities. Transshipment of freight between river and railroads is handled at privately owned river- to-rail terminals. Existing private terminals are adequate for shipments and receipt in Pittsburgh District of type of commerce now in existence. Operations and results during fiscal year. Operation and maintenance, general: Locks were operated as required and necessary repairs made to structures to maintain them in serviceable condition at cost of $793,423; maintenance repairs at locks and dams were accomplished at cost of $208,096. Condition at end of fiscal year. Existing project is complete, last lock was placed in service in 1938. All locks and dams are in good condition. Navigation channel has been widened at certain points and, in general, maintained to project depth, thus affording adequate depth for passage of commercial tows. 2. CONSTRUCTION OF LOCKS AND DAMS, OHIO RIVER See this heading under Ohio River portion. 3. MONONGAHELA RIVER, PA. AND W. VA. Location. Formed by junction of Tygart and West Fork Rivers about I mile south of Fairmont, W. Va., and flows northerly for 128.7 miles to its junction with Allegheny River, forming Ohio River at Pittsburgh, Pa. (See Geological Survey Charts for southwestern Pennsylvania and northern West Virginia.) Previous project. For details see Annual Report for 1963, page 1070. Existing project. Provides for improvement of river by 9 locks and dams to afford slack-water navigation for its entire length from Pittsburgh to above Fairmont, W. Va. Original locks and dams 7, 8 and 9 were replaced by new locks and dam 7 and 8 in 1925. Increased traffic necessitated enlargement and improvement of locks and dams 1 to 6 between Pittsburgh and Rices Landing, Pa., by building two parallel chambers and fixed concrete dams during 1905 to 1932. Locks and dam 1 were eliminated in 1938 by raising Emsworth Dam, Ohio River. Reconstruction of lock 2 was completed in 1953 to provide two modern navigation chambers. Construction of Maxwell locks and dam and the reconstruction of dam 4 have allowed for removal of obsolete locks and dams 5 and 6. Small and antiquated original locks and dams 10 to 15, inclusive, have been replaced by three modern structures. Morgantown lock and dam, initial step in replacement program, was completed in 1950 replacing locks and dams 10 and 11. Hildebrand lock and dam, next upstream, was completed in 1959 replacing locks and dams 12 and 13. Raising crest of dam 8 was also completed in 1959 as part of upper river improvement and eliminates restricted depth in upper reach of pool. Opekiska lock and dam, the final step in the replacement program, was completed in 1967 replacing locks and dams 14 and 15. Completion of this final link in upper river replacement program provides for entire river length of minimum channel depth of 9 feet, varying in width from a minimum of 250 feet to practically full width at mouth. Estimated cost for new work (1973), exclusive of amounts expended on previous projects is $122,500,000. (See tables 26-B, 26-D, and 26-E for authorizing legislation and locks and dams on Monongahela River, Pa. and W. Va., and total costs of existing project to end of fiscal year.) Local cooperation. None required. Terminal facilities. City of Pittsburgh constructed a modern wharf for freight. Boat landings are maintained by some municipalities along the river. A large number of tipples at mines and various types of hoists at manufacturing plants and sand and gravel supply companies are maintained for private use in loading and unloading 26-2 PITTSBURGH, PA., DISTRICT coal, coke, billets, steel products, sand, gravel, and other commodities. These terminals and docks are not available for general commerce. A number of docks and pipelines are also privately maintained for petroleum and acid products. Marine ways are maintained by some of the larger industries. There are also several terminals for rail-to-river and river-to-rail transfer. Facilities considered adequate for existing commerce. Operations and results during fiscal year. New work: Maxwell locks and dam: Administrative work and settlements on outstanding judgments on land acquired by condemnation continued at cost of $9,552. Total cost for Maxwell locks and dam was $10,086. Reconstruction of dam 4: Costs incurred in connection with concluding land acquisition were $702. Total cost for reconstruction of dam 4 was $1,261. Opekiska locks and dam: Costs incurred in connection with closing out the project were $27,070. Operation and maintenance, general: Locks were operated as required and necessary repairs were made to structures to maintain them in a serviceable condition at cost of $1,789,453; maintenance repairs at locks and dams, including maintenance dredging below lock 2, cost $524,794. Study for the replacement of locks and dams for lower reach of river was suspended pending accomplishment of a systems analysis approach for navigation planning. Condition at end of fiscal year. Project is complete except for concluding actions relative to outstanding judgments in connection with acquisition of land for the reconstruction of dam 4 and construction of Maxwell locks and dam. A controlling depth of 9 feet is maintained for entire length of river, varying in width from a minimum of 250 feet to full width of river at mouth. 4. OPEN-CHANNEL WORK, OHIO RIVER. See this heading under Ohio River portion. 5. TYGART RIVER LAKE, W. VA. Location. On Tygart River in Taylor County, W. Va., about 22.7 miles above mouth of river at Fairmont, W. Va. It is 2.25 miles upstream from Grafton, W. Va., and about 78 miles south of Pittsburgh, Pa. Reservoir is in Taylor and Barbour Counties, W. Va. (See Geological Survey Charts for Fairmont, Thornton, and Belington, W. Va.) Existing project. A reservoir for low water regulation and flood control. Dam is concrete gravity type with an uncontrolled center spillway flanked by abutment sections joining valley sides. Project was authorized by Public Works Administration January 11, 1934, and adopted by 1935 River and Harbor Act. For further project description see Annual Report for 1962. Completed project cost $18,431,844. Local cooperation. None required. Operations and results during fiscal year. Operation and maintenance, general: Reservoir was operated for benefit of flood control and low water regulation, as required, and project structures were maintained in a serviceable condition throughout the year at cost of $185,526. On December 11, 1972 the reservoir reached the year-high elevation of 1145.5, with a storage of 222,900 acre-feet or 76 percent of usable winter flood control storage. This elevation was the highest for December in the 34-year period of record (1114.4 in 1970). The Monongahela River crested at Maxwell locks and dam on the 9th at 28.7 feet, 1.2 feet above damage stage and at lock 2, Braddock on the 10th at 20.9 feet, 1.9 feet above damage stage. Ohio River crested at Pittsburgh on the 10th at 22.6 feet. Crest stage reductions effected by this reservoir at Maxwell locks and dam, lock 2, Braddock and Pittsburgh were 4.6, 3.8 and 1.45 feet, respectively. Other rises during the year occurred on December 23, 1972 when the reservoir reached elevation 1087.6 and on April 30, 1973 when the reservoir reached elevation 1128.7 effecting crest stage reductions at Pittsburgh of 0.15 foot and 1.0 foot, respectively. Estimated flood control benefits achieved by this reservoir for fiscal year were $4,945,000. Total flood control benefits for this reservoir through June 30, 1973 are $164,408,000. Some reservoir management activity was continued comprising sanitation measures, real estate management and operation and maintenance of public-use facilities. This work was limited in scope as State of West Virginia has jurisdiction over recreation in reservoir area. Condition at end of fiscal year. Authorized project is complete. Reservoir is in operation for low water control in Monongahela River and for purpose of flood protection minM onongahela and Ohio Valleys. Construction of dam was started in 1935 and placed in operation in 1938. 6. OTHER AUTHORIZED NAVIGATION PROJECTS See table 26-F on other authorized navigation projects. Flood Control 7. ALLEGANY, N.

Operations and results during fiscal year. None. Condition at end of fiscal year. Preconstruction planning has not been started. 8. BERLIN LAKE, OHIO RIVER BASIN, OHIO Location. Dam is on Mahoning River about 73 miles above its confluence with Shenango River. It is about 10 miles above existing Milton Reservoir Dam and 35 miles upstream from Warren, Ohio. Reservoir is in Portage, Mahoning, and Stark Counties, Ohio (See Geological Survey Charts for Warren, Ravenna, and Alliance, Ohio.) Existing project. A reservoir for flood control and water supply. Dam consists of a partially controlled, concrete gravity, center spillway flanked by rolled-earthfill abutment sections joining valley sides. Project selected for construction under general authorization for Ohio River Basin in 1938 Food Control Act. For further project d1e2s3c3r.i ption, see Annual Report for 1962, page Federal cost of completed project was $6,- 288,676. Construction of additional recreation facilities for completed project is estimated to cost $3,164,800 (1973) raising the total project cost estimate to $9,453,476. Local cooperation. None required by law. Operations and results during fiscal year. New work: Construction of roads, parking areas and camping spurs at Mill Creek recreation area was completed under contract at cost of $102,677. Operation and maintenance, general: Reservoir was operated as required and necessary repairs were made to structures and appurtenances at cost of $377,709. On July 17, 1972 the reservoir reached elevation 1027.7, with a storage of 70,- 000 acre-feet. The combined Berlin-Milton year-high storage of 94,500 acre-feet represented 50 percent of usable seasonal flood control storage. The Mahoning River crested at Warren on the 17th at 5.4 feet, 0.8 foot below damage stage. Crest stage reduction effected by this reservoir at Warren was 3.4 feet. On March 18, 1973 the reservoir reached the year-high elevation of 1028.6, with a storage of 74,200 acre-feet. The combined Berlin-Milton storage of 79,300 acre-feet on the 21st represented 36 percent of usable winter flood control storage. The Mahoning River crested at Warren on the 16th at 8.2 feet, 2.0 feet above damage stage, and at Youngstown on the 15th at 10.3 feet, 0.3 foot above damage stage. Crest stage reductions effected by this reservoir at Warren and Youngstown were 3.55 and 2.4 feet, respectively. On April 30, 1973 the reservoir reached elevation 1027.0, with a storage of 66,900 acre-feet. The Mahoning River crested at Warren on the 29th at 4.45 feet, 1.75 feet below damage stage. The crest stage reduction effected by this reservoir at Warren was 2.2 feet. Estimated flood control benefits achieved by this reservoir for the fiscal year were $2,486,000. Total flood control benefits for this reservoir through June 30, 1973 are $91,717,000. Regulated flows at Leavittsburg, Ohio, in conjunction with Michael J. Kirwan Dam and Reservoir, for 110 days during July-November 1972 and June 1973 averaged 343 cubic feet per second, representing 318 percent of the natural low flow. Water supply diversion from this reservoir by Mahoning Valley Sanitary District for domestic consumption was made under contract reservation of 15 million gallons per day for the fiscal year. There was no withdrawal for water supply during this fiscal year. Natural storage in Meander Creek Reservoir was sufficient to meet the water demands. Activities under reservoir management program comprising sanitation measures, conservation, land management, and operation and maintenance of public-use facilities continued. Condition at end of fiscal year. Authorized project is complete and in operation for flood control and low water regulation purposes in industrialized Mahoning Valley below. Construction of dam was started January 1942 and completed June 1943. Land acquired for 26-4 PITTSBURGH, PA., DISTRICT project consists of 6,885.3 acres in fee simple and easements over 1,098.7 acres. Remaining work consists of provision on project lands of additional recreation facilities required to serve public needs. 9. CHARTIERS CREEK, PA. Location. Within Washington and Allegheny Counties, southwestern Pennsylvania, a tributary of Ohio River. (See Geological Survey Chart for Carnegie, Pa.). Existing project. Provides for channel widening, deepening and realignment, construction of a major channel cutoff, and relocations in two separate and independent reaches. Carnegie- Bridgeville reach of improvement in Allegheny County would be about 13.4 miles long and Canonsburg- Houston reach in Washington County about 4.7 miles long. Proposed improvements would contain within banks all floods up to the 1912 maximum of record, but with some residual damage, and would greatly reduce flood stages and damages resulting from higher floods. Project was authorized by Flood Control Act of 1965. Estimated cost for new work (1973) is $34,800,000, of which $26,100,000 is Federal cost and $8,900,000 non-Federal cost. Local cooperation. Responsible local interests must provide lands, easements, rights-of-way, and spoil-disposal areas for construction; bear cost of all relocations and alterations of sewer, water, gas, oil, electric powerlines, and other utility alterations; railroad track shifts; highway and street modifications; and construction of new or reconstruction of existing highway bridges made necessary by construction work; hold United States free from damages; establish channel limit lines within each county along entire waterway downstream from existing improvements at Washington, Pa., and prevent any encroachment which would reduce flood-carrying capacity of the channel so defined; inform affected interests at least annually that project will not provide complete protection from floods greater in magnitude than that which occurred in September 1912; and maintain and operate project works after completion. Board of County Commissioners, Washington County, local cooperating agency for Canonsburg-Houston reach of improvement and Chartiers Valley District Flood Control Authority, local cooperating agency for Carnegie- Bridgeville reach provided formal assurances of local cooperation which were accepted by District Engineer on July 12, 1967 and November 27, 1967, respectively. Tri-party contract between Allegheny County Sanitary Authority, Chartiers Valley District Flood Control Authority and United States of America covering relocation of sanitary sewer facilities in Carnegie-Bridgeville reach was approved April 4, 1968. Local interests have completed acquisition of rights-of-entry and arrangements for utility adjustments for Units 1, 2, 3 and 5 of Carnegie-Bridgeville reach and for Unit 1 of Canonsburg-Houston reach. Local requirements for remaining two units are expected to be furnished when required. Non-federal contributions have been made in the amount of $3,551,390. Operations and results during fiscal year. New work: Carnegie-Bridgeville Reach-Construction of Unit 2 was completed under contract at cost of $877,792.

STONEWALL JACKSON LAKE, W. VA. Location. In Lewis County, northern West Virginia, on the West Fork River, which joins the Tygart River at Fairmont, West Virginia to form the Monongahela River. Damsite is located at Brownsville, West Virginia, about 4 miles south of Weston and 72 miles above mouth of West Fork River at Fairmont, W. Va. (See Geological Survey Charts for Weston and Crawford, W. Va.) Existing project. Provides for construction of a reservoir for flood control, water supply, water quality control, area redevelopment and recreation. Dam would be of the concrete gravity type, 95 feet high and 680 feet long. Outlet works will consist of four multi-level sluices, spillway will be uncontrolled. Storage capacity will. be 74,650 acre-feet controlling an area of 102 square miles. Project was authorized by 1966 Flood Control Act. Estimated initial Federal cost for new work (1973) is $87,500,000 (includes $7,540,000 reimbursement by non-Federal interests). Local cooperation. Local interests are required to make arrangements for repayment, under the provisions of the Water Supply Act of 1958, as amended, of that part of the construction cost and annual operation, maintenance and replacement costs allocated to municipal and industrial water supply, an amount presently estimated at $980,000 for construction; and $4,000 annually for operation, maintenance and replacements. Also, min accordance with the Federal Water Project Recreation Act, local interests are required to administer project land and water areas for recreation and fish and wildlife enhancement, pay, contribute in kind or repay (which may be through user fees) with interest, one-half of the separable first cost of the reservoir project allocated to recreation and fish and wildlife enhancement, an amount presently estimated at $6,- 420,000; bear all costs of operation, maintenance and replacement of recreation and fish and wildlife lands and facilities, the amount involved being currently estimated on an average annual basis to be $141,000; exercise to the full extent of their legal capability, control against removal of streamflow made available for water quality control; and contribute to the control of pollution of streams subject to low-flow augmentation by adequate treatment or other methods of controlling wastes at their source. The State on November 3, 1965 provided assurances that it will exercise, to the full extent of its legal capability,. control against removal of streamflow made available for water quality control; and contribute to the control of pollution of streams subject to low-flow augmentation by fully enforcing its law% which require adequate treatment or other methods of controlling wastes at their sources. The State of West Virginia reaffirmed the preceding assurances by letter dated July 7, 1970. Formal assurances from State of West Virginia together with certification from State Attorney General that the State has legal and financial ability to furnish such Assurances, were requested by letter dated August 3, 1971. Revised assurances, which deleted the requirement that the State of West Virginia "hold and save the United States free from damages resulting from water-rights claims due to construction and operation of the project" in conformance with PL 921222, were requested from the State of Westk Virginia b letter dated January 13, 1972. The Governor o West Virginia signed the assurances on May 29, 1973. The State of West Virginia on July 1, 1969 furnished a letter of intent that it desires to participate in the recreational development of the project in accordance with the provisions of the Federal Water Project Recreation Act of 1965. Draft of contract was given to State of West Virginia representatives on February 3, 1971. State law required approval of contract by the Attorney General. State submitted contract to Attorney General on March 1, 1971 for review. A revised draft of the recreation agreement between the Government and the State of West Virginia was forwarded to Director, Department of Natural Resources and the Deputy Attorney General, State of West Virginia on May 12, 1971. The State considered the planned initial recreation too costly and suggested a revised plan to provide for a less costly and more concentrated initial recreation development. A revised draft contract for cost sharing under PL 89-72 was submitted to the Director of Natural Resources for execution on March 10, 1972. Obligations for payment by the State of West Virginia, as presented in the contract were conditioned upon future appropriations. Such a conditioned obligation or payment is considered to be inadequate to satisfy the requirements of Section 221 of Public Law 91-611. Since the West Virginia Constitution prohibits contracts which obligate future legislatures to appropriate funds, the present contract is conditioned upon deferral of Section 221. The Office of the Secretary of the Army also considers it inappropriate to include future recreational developments of the project in determining the benefit cost ratio of the project under circumstances here such developments are dependent upon future appropriations; accordingly, benefits attributed to future recreational development must be deleted from the project economics, thereby necessitating a revision in the recreation contract. The City of Weston desires inclusion of storage for present and future use for water supply purposes. The City also recognizes the responsibility of repayment to the Unit- 26-14 PITTSBURGH, PA., DISTRICT ed States of all costs allocated to its share of the total storage allocated to water supply and on April 6, 1970 adopted a resolution expressing willingness to pay its portion of costs allocated to water supply. The City of Weston has executed the draft contract between the City and the United States covering the water supply aspects of the project as it affects the City of Weston which was forwarded to them on March 8, 1972. The City submitted the draft contract to the State Attorney General for his approval as required by Act of West Virginia Legislature. The deletion of benefits attributed to future recreational development increases the costs allocated to the various project functions, including water supply. The effect of the change on the water supply contract with the City of Weston has been discussed with the City, and to date the City has not objected. Although recognizing the potential benefit of including storage in the project for future water supply, the Clarksburg City Council, Clarksburg Water Board and Harrison County Court are unable to submit proper assurances of their intent to repay the allocated costs for the app ropriate storage. Since there is no indication that acceptable assurances will be obtained from the City of Clarksburg for reimbursement, water supply storage for the City of Clarksburg has been deleted from the project. Operations and results during fiscal year. New work: Engineering and design studies continued. Plans and specifications for site grading for Equitable Gas Company's compressor station were approved and work continued on the plans for Phase I piping. Condition at end of fiscal year. General design and real estate design memoranda have been approved as a basis for continued planning and design. Architect-engineering firm has completed plans and specifications for site grading relative to relocation of Equitable Gas Company's comressor station and is continuing work on plans or Phase I piping. Engineering and design studies continue along with efforts to secure required local cooperation agreements. 28. TENMILE CREEK AT MARIANNA, PA. Location.

Ohio River crested at Pittsburgh on the 10th at 22.6 feet. Crest stage reductions effected by this reservoir at lock 2, Braddock and Pittsburgh were 1.8 and 0.7 foot, respectively. Minor rises occurred on December 24, 1972 and on March 18, 1973 during which this reservoir achieved reductions at Pittsburgh of 0.2 and 0.05 foot. Crest stages on Ohio River at Pittsburgh for these rises were 20.2 and 18.85 feet. On April 30, 1973 the reservoir reached year-high elevation of 1452.4, with a storage of 194,800 acre-feet or 41 percent of usable summer flood control storage. Ohio River crested at Pittsburgh on the 29th at 18.65 feet, 0.65 foot above damage stage. Crest stage reduction effected by this reservoir at Pittsburgh was 0.4 foot. Estimated flood control benefits achieved by this re9yvoir for the fiscal year were $2,211,000. Total flood control benefits for this reservoir through June 30, 1973 ,are $93,- 896,000. Activities under reservoir management program comprising sanitation measures, conservation, land management and operation and maintenance of public-use facilities were continued. Condition at end of fiscal year. Authorized project is complete. Reservoir is in operation for flood control, navigation, and pollution abatement purposes. For flood control, reservoir is operated as a unit of coordinated reservoir system designed for protection of Pittsburgh and reduction of flood heights in upper Ohio Valley, generally. Construction of dam was started June 1940 and completed May 1944. Land acquired for project consists of 3,914.9 acres in fee simple. A license was issued Commonwealth of Pennsylvania covering fish conservation and management in Pennsylvania portion of reservoir. Future work consists of provision on project lands of additional recreational facilities as required to serve public needs. 33. YOUNGSTOWN, OHIO Location. In Mahoning County within city limits of Youngstown, along lower reaches of Crab Creek, a tributary of Mahoning River. (See Geological Survey Chart for Youngstown, Ohio.) Existing project. Provides for widening, deepening, and paving, with some realignment, channel of lower Crab Creek for about 2.2 miles above its mouth. Project would eliminate damages in Crab Creek area from all floods up to that of January 1959 flood of record and would greatly reduce damages that might be associated with greater floods. Project was authorized by Flood Control Act of 1962. Estimated Federal cost for new work (1973) is $3,738,000; estimated non-Federal cost of lands, damages, and construction adjustments is $500,000.

The river meanders through Minot, flowing generally from west to east and divides the community into two parts. (For general location, see Geological Survey map of North Dakota.) Existing project. Project provides for channel improvement within a 37.0-mile reach of the Souris River extending from Burlington to Logan. The authorized plan for channel improvement includes 18.4 miles of snagging and clearing with nine cutoffs to the downstream end of Minot (27th Street Bridge), 7.3 miles of continuous channel enlargement with five cutoffs below 27th Street, and 2.4 miles of snagging and clearing with three cutoffs downstream to Logan. The cutoffs would shorten the existing channel about 8.9 miles within the improved reach. Low flanking levees totaling about 8,700 feet in length would be required along four reaches above and through Minot. Field experience gathered during the successful flood fight conducted during the flood of May 1970 indicated that several design features are inadequate. A major inadequacy is in the interior drainage feature. The experienced seepage into low areas near the channel together with snowmelt and rainfall runoff indicated that four permanent pumping stations plus storm drain outfall closures would be necessary. Flood experience also indicated that diversion structures and additional bank protection would be required, and additional channel improvements plus modification of channel cutoffs and low levees would be required in selected reaches. Channel capacity has been increased from 3,800 to 5,000 cubic feet per second. Estimated Federal cost (1973) for new work is $14,300,000. Project was authorized in 1970 under section 201 of the Flood Control Act of 1965 (H. Doc. 91-321, 91st Cong., 1st sess., contains latest published map).

Operations and results during fiscal year. New work: Studies in preparation of Design Memorandum, Phase 1I-Plan Formulation, was continued by hired labor at a cost of $44,141. An economic feasibility letter report was completed as a basis for action on further planning and funding. Environmental studies by contract cost $15,035. Condition at end of fiscal year. Preconstruction planning is in progress. 46. WARROAD RIVER & BULL DOG CREEK, MINN. Location. Vicinity of Warroad, Minn., near mouth of Warroad River in north-central Minnesota, near international boundary. Warroad River flows into Lake of the Woods, a part of Hudson Bay drainage system. (For general location see Geological Survey Map of Minnesota.) Existing project. Provides for enlarging, straightening, and clearing about 8.6 miles of Warroad River extending upstream from East Branch, the lower 7.5 miles and 4.5 miles on East Branch and Bull Dog Creek, respectively, entire 4-mile reach of County Ditch 10 including 1 mile of diversion ditch, and entire 9.2 miles of County Ditch 6. Also included are a control structure on Warroad River at outlet of reserve ditch system, a levee along Warroad River to prevent overflow into adjacent Roseau River basin, seven drop structures, paved grade crossings, and other work. Estimated Federal cost (1973) for new work is $2,220,000 and $213,000 to be contributed by local interests. Project was authorized by 27-20 ST. PAUL, MINN., DISTRICT 1962 Flood Control Act. (H. Doc. 499, 87th Cong., 2d sess., contains latest published map.) Local cooperation. See page 1125 of Annual Report for 1966. Local interests have not been requested to furnish assurances. Operations and results during fiscal year. New work: Preconstruction planning was continued at a cost by hired labor of $4,377. Preconstruction planning is in progress. 47. WILD RICE RIVER-SOUTH BRANCH AND FELTON DITCH, MINN. Location. In Clay and Norman Counties in west-central Minnesota northeast of the city of Moorhead, Minn. The South Branch of the Wild Rice River and Felton Ditch drain areas of 222 and 159 square miles and enter the Wild Rice River at points 29.5 and 20.5 miles, respectively, above its confluence with the Red River of the North. (For general locations, see Geological Survey map of Minnesota.) Existing project. Provides for improving the channels by snagging and clearing the South Branch between miles 17.2 and 14.5 and enlarging the channel between mile 14.5 and the mouth and by enlarging Felton Ditch between mile 17.7 and its mouth. In addition, short reaches of low flanking dikes would be constructed on both banks of Felton Ditch near the upper limit of improvement, and drop structures would be placed in both channels. The proposed works would require modification of nine highway crossings and one railroad bridge. Associated lateral and on-farm works would be provided by others. Estimated Federal cost (1973) for new work is $2,440,000. Project was authorized by 1968 Flood Control Act (H. Doc:.98, 90th Cong., 1st sess., contains latest published map). Local cooperation. See page 826 of Annual Report for 1969 for requirements. Assurances of local cooperation have not been requested. Operation and results during fiscal year. New work: Preparation of Design Memorandum, Phase 1-Plan Formulation, was continued by hired labor at a cost of $36,281. Environmental studies by contract cost $10,023. Condition at end of fiscal year. Preconstruction planning is in progress. 48. WINONA, MINN. Location. At Winona in Winona County in southeastern Minnesota on the right bank of the Mississippi River about 725 miles above mouth of Ohio River. (For general location see Geological Survey map of Minnesota.) Existing project. See page 833 of Annual Report for 1968 for completed upstream improvements authorized by the Flood Control Act of 1958 providing for a continuous flood barrier about 6.1 miles long with related pumping and interior drainage facilities. Federal costs amounted to $2,147,131 of which $111,500 was expended for the portion then deferred for restudy and $17,316 was contributed by local interests. Improvement authorized in 1971 under Section 201 of the Flood Control Act of 1965 (H. Doc. 152, 92d Cong., 1st sess., contains latest published map) provides for levee and floodwall protection with necessary interior drainage works for the riverfront and the Lake Winona closure reaches, as well as a sound floodplain management program to prevent unwise development of the area bordered by U.S. Highway 61 and Burns Valley and Pleasant Valley Creeks. The plan would also provide the downstream flood barrier needed to prevent Mississippi River backup flows from entering Lake Winona and inundating the area now only partially protected by the completed segment of the project authorized by the 1958 Flood Control Act. The selected plan would also provide control of Burns Valley Creek by means of channel improvement, raising and extending the existing levee system, a drop structure, an erosion control structure, and a sewer line modification. Earth levees, averaging 10 feet in height and totaling approximately 3.8 miles in length, comprise about 85 percent of the proposed flood barrier. Concrete floodwalls, also averaging about 10 feet in height, total about 3,400 feet in length. Estimated Federal cost (1973) for new work is $13,300,000 and $253,- 000 is to be contributed by local interests. Resolutions authorizing the project were adopted by the Public Works Committees of the House on July 29, 1971, and the Senate on November 18, 1971. Local cooperation. Fully complied with for completed work. See page 833 of Annual Report for 1968 for requirements. For improvements authorized in 1971 see Annual Report for 1972 for requirements. A resolution was passed and approved on February 2, 1970 by the Winona City Council indicating support for the plan of improvement and the willingness and ability of the city to meet the requirements of local cooperation when requested. Local interests have not been requested to furnish assurances. Operations and results during fiscal year. New Work: Preparation of Design Memorandum, Phase 1-Plan Formulation was initiated by hired labor at a cost of $3,498. 27-21 REPORT OF THE CHIEF OF ENGINEERS, U.S. ARMY 1973 Condition at end of fiscal year. The upstream improvement except for a portion of the project raising and extending the existing levee downstream from tha Lake Winona outlet was completed in August 1967. At the request of local interests, the uncompleted portion of the project authorized in 1958 was not constructed in order that the scope of the project could be reconsidered to allow for the protection of additional lands needed by the city for industrial expansion. This work was deferred for restudy and now has been deauthorized by approval and authorization in 1971 of additional protection for Winona. Preconstruction planning for the improvement authorized in 1971 is in progress. Total costs for the entire project were $2,- 167,945 of which $2,150,629 was from Federal funds and $17,316 contributed funds, all for new work. 49. ZUMBRO RIVER, MINN. Location. Lower end of Zumbro River, in Wabasha County in southeastern Minnesota, between Kellogg, Minn., and its mouth at the Mississippi River. (For general location, see Geological Survey map of Minnesota.) Existing project. Provides for construction of about 15,900 feet of continuous channel improvement including two channel cutoffs, the construction of a system of continuous set-back levees, totaling about 23,500 feet, paralleling both banks of the river along the channel enlargement reach, and slope protection of riverbank areas susceptible to bank erosion, all to alleviate damages from flooding. Estimated cost (1973) to the United States for new work is $1,- 250,000. Project was authorized by 1965 Flood Control Act. (H. Doc. 246, 88th Cong., 2d sess., contains latest published map.) -Local cooperation. See page 827 of Annual Report for 1969 for requirements. Formal request for assurances was made by letter dated March 15, 1971 to the Board of County Commissioners, County of Wabasha. The resolution of assurances was accepted by the District Engineer on January 12, 1972. Local interests involved no longer wish the project to provide for a roadway over the top of the levees. This obviates the need for a cash contribution of 1.5 percent of the actual cost of construction for widening levees to provide for a roadway and noted in the project document local cooperation requirements. The project plan now includes a relocation of the roadway along the land side of the north levee at non-Federal cost. Operations and results during fiscal year. New work: A contract for construction of channel improvements was brought to 59-percent completion at a cost of $580,100. Hired labor costs were $11,602. Engineering and design and supervision and administration cost $17,923. Condition at end of fiscal year. Construction of the improvement by contract awarded in June 1972 is in progress. 50. INSPECTION OF COMPLETED FLOOD CONTROL PROJECTS Projects were inspected to determine that project channels are kept clean and unobstructed, dikes and revetments are in good condition, and structures are in good repair and operable. Deficiencies, if any, were minor unless noted. (See table 27-I on inspection of completed flood control projects.) Cost for the year was $28,100. Total cost to -June 30, 1973 was $145,224. 51.

Site is chiefly in Polk County, Iowa, but portions will extend into Dallas and Boone Counties. Dam is about 213.7 miles above mouth of Des Moines River, and about 5 miles upstream from north limits of city of Des Moines. Area is shown on aeronautical maps of Coast and Geodetic Survey, Des Moines and Dubuque sections. Existing project. Dam is an earth embankment 6,750 feet long at crest with a height of 120 feet. Outlet works are a single circular concrete conduit, 22 feet in diameter, located at toe of west bluff. Control structure is at upstream end of conduit and houses three gates. A stilling basin is provided to dissipate energy of discharge from outlet conduit. Spillway is in west bluff, weir 430 feet long. Water flowing over spillway weir will discharge into a paved chute and thence into an excavated earth channel to the Des Moines River. Top of spillway is about 31 feet below top of earth embankment section, and flow over weir will be uncontrolled when water in reservoir reaches its crest. Watershed area above damsite is 5,823 square miles. With pool at spillway crest elevation, lake area will be 16,700 acres and contain about 676,000 acre-feet of water at that height (602,000 for flood control and 74,000 for a conservation pool to maintain minimum flows at downstream points). Lake will supplement 28-7 REPORT OF THE CHIEF OF ENGINEERS, U.S. ARMY 1973 capacity of downstream Lake Red Rock at river mile 142.9. The two lakes will provide a large degree of flood protection to lower Des Moines River Valley. Reaches along Mississippi River downstream from mouth of Des Moines River will also be benefited. Estimated Federal cost is $73,050,000, including $550,000 as a cash contribution from the State of Iowa. See table 28-C for authorizing legislation. Local cooperation. Fully complied with.

FLOOD CONTROL WORK UNDER SPECIAL AUTHORIZATION Emergency Flood Control Activities; Repair, Flood Fighting, and Rescue Work (Public Law 99, 84th Cong., and Antecedent Legislation) In November, 1972, North Central Division of the Corps of Engineers requested authorization to undertake a "Foresight" type of operation to provide temporary flood protection on the Great Lakes. In December 1972, North Central Division was officially notified to proceed with Operation Foresight. Also in December 1972, Detroit District was issued a directive to proceed by the North Central Division. Representatives of the Detroit District met with representatives of the State of Michigan in December 1972, to explain procedures and guidelines. In FY 73 over 75 communities were contacted with some 43 participating in "Foresight"; others have received flood fighting assistance. Under "Foresight", protection is to be provided where there is an imminent threat of flooding. The primary cause of the threat is the excessive rainfall over the Great Lakes Basin since 1970 which has caused higher lake levels. The situation becomes aggravated when onshore winds begin to exceed 20 m.p.h. The emergency program pertains specifically to flooding and is not applicable to prevention or mitigation of shore erosion. The program required that each plan of temporary flood protection be feasible from an engineering and economic standpoint and that it be feasible of timely completion. Three plans of assistance were made available to a community; namely, Corps of Engineers constructed dikes, self-help projects where the Corps furnished the material and the local citizens provided the labor, and a combination self-help and contractor constructed project. Present Foresight Projects have been scheduled for completion to provide protection against the fall storms should they come. Originally "Foresight" was scheduled for winding down in June of 1973; however, the March-April storm which swept the Great Lakes made it apparent that more protection would be required and more communmtes requested assistance. In Michigan seven contract projects have been completed at an estimated cost of $1.4 million. In Ohio one contract project was completed at an estimated cost of $3.6 million. Fifteen self-help projects have been completed at a cost of $2.3 million with Government furnished materials including returnable pumps. Cost of furnished materials for flood fighting assistance (including returnable pumps) was $.02 million in Michigan and $.002 million in Ohio. There are four ongoing self-help projects at an estimated cost for Government furnished materials of $.57 million in Michigan and $.012 million in Ohio. There are 27 contracts in Michigan and two in Ohio that are working or in the design stage. Total cost of Operation Foresight to end of FY 73 was $12.86 million. When the Foresight Projects are completed as estimated, 19 million dollars will have been spent with estimated benefits of over 70 million dollars. Protection will be provided to 113 communities within the Detroit District. The extent of the diking will exceed 100 miles. Lumber used will exceed 3 million board feet, over a quarter million cubic yards of fill material will have been used, and over 6 million sandbags will have been issued. 51. SURVEY OF NORTH CENTRAL LAKES Field Operations The following reports on the results of field discharge measurements were completed: 1971, Flow Through St. Marys Control Structure for Various Gate Settings: 1972, St. Lawrence Discharge Measurements at Massena Point: 1972, Lake Ontario Outflow Measurements: 1972-73 Effects of Ice Cover on Flow Distribution in the St. Marys River: 1972 Inland Route Discharge Measurements on the Crooked River. Reports were started on the results of the following discharge measurements: 1972-73 Calibration of the Leading Edge Flow Meter on the Niagara River During High Lake Levels: 1973 Detroit River Discharge Measurements During High Lake Levels. Approximately one-half of the aforementioned field work was conducted cooperatively with the Water Survey of Canada and was required for the International Joint Commission Boards and Committees. The remaining work was carried out in support of the Great Lakes-St. Lawrence Seaway Navigation Season Extension Demonstration Program in an effort to determine the effects of ice and late-season shipping on flows in the connecting Great Lake rivers and in support of other Detroit District functions. The study of ship speeds and their effects on shore properties along the St. Clair-Detroit waterway has been completed and coordinated with the St. Lawrence Seaway Authority. Public hearings on speed limits recommended as a result of the study have been held. The new speed limits 31-26 DETROIT, MICH., DISTRICT have been imposed and are in effect on the St. Clair-Detroit waterway. New techniques employed in field operations include: use of fluorescent dye in determining flow distribution in the lower Detroit River channels: photogrammetric measurements of river flow direction and velocity: sampling of critical ice areas using a helicopter: useof an air-propelled ice boat in measuring velocities and temperatures during winter conditions: use of modified water level recorder in recording vessel wakes: use of expendable bathythermographs in recording winter water temperature profiles on the Straits of Mackinac: use of a strain gage aparatus to measure forces exerted by moving ice elds. Advances in computer application include the computation of sediment transport by a digital computer. Input data includes wave energy, shoreline reach length and shoreline orientation. International Activities The following activities were conducted specifically for the International Joint Commission boards and committees. Members of the Detroit District Staff attended the appearances of the Great Lakes Boards before the Commission. International Lake Superior Board of Control. Periodic reports of water levels and recommendations regarding regulation of Lake Superior were furnished to the Board. The computation of the effects of Lake Superior regulation on the lower lakes is being kept current for the Board's use and information. International Niagara Board of Control and International Niagara Working Committee. A member of the Detroit District Staff, acting as hydraulic consultant to the Buffalo District and to the U. S. section of the Working Committee, attended meetings of the Board and the Working Committee. During this period, a report was prepared for the International Niagara Working Committee relative to the hydraulic effects of an alleged illegal fill in the Niagara River at Fort Erie, Ontario. In addition, the Branch participated in a joint discharge measurement program in the Upper Niagara River for the purpose of calibrating a sonic flowmeter. International St. Lawrence River Board of Control and St. Lawrence Committee on River Gaging. A member of the Detroit District Staff, acting as hydraulic consultant, attended meetings of the Board and River Gaging Committee. For the U. S. Section of the Gaging Committee and in conjunction with Canada, the Detroit District metered flows in the St. Lawrence River for calibration of the Moses-Saunders powerhouse. A final report of the results was completed and submitted to the St. Lawrence Committee on River Gaging. International Great Lakes Levels Board and Working Committee. Members of the Detroit District staff attended numerous meetings of the Board, its Working Committee and Subcommittees and these staff members served as Chairmen of the Regulation Subcommittee and Regulatory Works Subcommittee, and as members of the Report Subcommittee. In addition, technical and consulting support was given to the Shore Property, Navigation and Power Subcommittees. In support of the Shore Property Subcommittee, the Detroit District participated in the 1971 study of effects of various flows through the Lake Superior Regulatory Works conducted by the International Great Lakes Levels Board. Discharge measurements were made in cooperation with Water Survey of Canada. Results of the measurements during the test were reduced and reported by the Detroit District during FY 73. Draft Number 3 of the Regulatory Works Subcommittee's report, Appendix G, for the International Great Lakes Levels Board Report on Regulation was completed. Members of the Detroit District on the Subcommittee attended many meetings during FY 73. In connection with its chairmanship of the Regulation Subcommittee, the Detroit District continued development and testing of regulation plans for all the Great Lakes and various combinations of lakes. Work continued on the final draft of Appendix A, "Hydraulics and Hydrology of the Great Lakes", to the Board's report. The second draft of Appendix B, "Regulation of the Great Lakes", has been completed. Development of partial regulation plans for Lake Erie which was not part of the original assignment was started. These plans use the Black Rock Canal as a means of obtaining required additional discharge capacity. All plans developed to date in this study have been developed so as not to require any modification in the St. Lawrence River channels or works. The lake regulation plan SO-901, developed as part of this study for the regulation of Lake Superior, was presented to the International Joint Commission by the International Great Lakes Levels Board. The Detroit District assisted in the public hearings held by the I.J.C. regarding the plan. Development of additional plans in this series, increasing the range of levels on Lake Superior were also started during the Fiscal Year. The Detroit District staff provided the other Subcommittees (Shore Property, Navigation and Power) with the necessary support to analyze and evaluate all regulation plans presented for detailed evaluation. 31-27 REPORT OF THE CHIEF OF ENGINEERS, U.S. ARMY 1973 Coordinating Committee on Great Lakes Basin Hydraulics and Hydrologic Data.

(See Coast and Geodetic Survey Charts 5007 and 5202.) Existing project. A harbor for light-draft vessels and beach erosion control works. Ventura County, sponsor of project, requested modifica-' tion of document plan of harbor improvement and submitted a modified plan that was approved and adopted by Chief of Engineers in 1957. The harbor, which provides facilities for berthing and servicing about 640 small craft and commercial fishing boats, includes an entrance channel 20 feet deep, 300 feet wide, and 1,650 feet long-protected by two parallel entrance jetties 1,270 and 1,300 feet long; an entrance basin 20 feet deep, 300 to 750 feet wide, and 1,750 feet long; an inner basin 10 feet deep, 900 to 1,400 feet wide, and 1,200 to 2,000 feet long; and a side basin 10 feet deep, 100 to 250 feet wide, and 900 feet long. About 6,238,000 cubic yards of dredged material from entrance channel, interior basins, and sand trap were deposited in feeder-beach area to restore downcoast shoreline. A 2,300-foot-long offshore breakwater was placed to form a sand trap in conjunction with jetties. About 2,000,000 cubic yards of material are to be dredged each biennium from sand trap formed by jetties and breakwater. This material will be deposited along the downcoast shoreline as long as the area remains under Federal ownership or use and requires beach erosion control. Plane of reference is mean lower low water. Range between mean lower low water and mean higher high water is 5.4 feet. Extreme range is about 8.5 feet. Federal first cost of new work on roject as modified was $5,123,345 (excluding 1,361,668 Navy funds and cost to Coast Guard for installation of aids to navigation).

Provides entrance channel to Oakland Outer Harbor, 35 feet deep from deep water in San Francisco Bay and 800 feet wide across shoal southeast of Yerba Buena Island, narrowing to 600 feet at Oakland Mole; thence a channel and turning basin 35 feet deep and from 600 to 950 feet wide in outer harbor to Army base. Project also provides entrance channel to Oakland Inner Harbor, 35 feet deep and 800 feet wide at bayward end, narrowing to 600 feet wide at ends of Oakland jetties; a channel from en d ofe s etties 35 feet deep and 600 feet wide to west en of Government Island, with additional widening to within 75 feet of pierhead line in front of Grove and Market Street (formerly municipal) piers and along south side of channel from Harrison Street eastward to harbor-line point 119 in Brooklyn Basin; a channel 35 feet deep and 500 feet wide through Brooklyn Basin; for dredging 35 feet deep a triangular area about 2,700 feet long and maximum width of 300 feet at western end of Brooklyn Basin; a channel along north side of Brooklyn Basin 35 feet deep and 300 feet wide for 1,300 feet, thence 25 feet deep to a turning basin at east end of Brooklyn Basin 35 feet deep, 500 feet wide, and 1,200 feet long; a channel in tidal canal 35 feet deep and 275fe et wide from Brooklyn Basin to Park Street, thence 18 feet deep to San Leandro Bay; a total channel length of 8.5 miles from San Francisco Bay to San Leandro Bay. Project also includes parallel rubblemound jetties at entrance to inner harbor, north jetty 9,500 feet long and south jetty 12,000 feet ong; three highway bridges across tidal canal, two of which Pwaar t Street and High Street) have been relaced by local interests. Railroad and highway ridges at Fruitvale Avenue are maintained and operated by the United States. Approved estimated cost for new work (1973), exclusive of amounts expended on previous projects, is $11,569,000 of which $10,922,000 is Federal cost and $647,000 to be contributed by local interests. Federal participation in reconstruction of Fruitvale Avenue Highway Bridge now being accomplished with Operation and Maintenance funds excluded from oregoing cost estimate. (See table 34-B for authorizing legislation.) Local cooperation. Act of January 21, 1927, requires that future maintenance by the United States of north channel in Brooklyn Basin be contingent upon removal by local interests of all sewers emptying therein, or, in lieu of such removal, upon contribution of one-half the cost of maintenance. This requirement has not been fulfilled. In compliance with a 1910 license issued by Secretary of War pursuant to provisions of act of June 25, 1910, local interests replaced bridges at Park Street and High Street and are operating and maintaining them. They operated and maintained a combined highway and railroad bridge at Fruitvale Avenue until 1942 when California Court of Appeals ruled that it was illegal for County of Alameda to use appropriated funds for sole benefit of a private corporation. Southern Pacific Railroad Co. operated trains over combined bridge until June 1951 when a separate railroad bridge, constructed for its use by the Federal Government, was placed in operation. (Railroad and highway bridges at Fruitvale Ave. are maintained and operated by the United States.) All other requirements have been fully complied with. Only fragmentary records are available of costs to local interests in meeting requirements of local cooperation. Recorded expenditures are in excess of $11 million. Act of October 23, 1962, requires that local interests provide lands and rights-of-way for construction and maintenance; hold the United States free from damages to wharves, piers, tubes, and other marine and submarine structures due to initial dredging and future maintenance; alter sewer, water supply, drainage, and other utility facilities; provide and maintain adequate public terminal and transfer facilities, open to all equally; deepen and maintain slips and berths; and if required furnish spoil-disposal areas including necessary dikes, bulkheads and embankments for initial dredging and future maintenance. The State of California, on 25 May 1973, furnished reassurances that it will hold the United States free from liability for damages to Posey and Webster Street Tubes due to initial dredging and subsequent maintenance. Required assurances have been provided by the Port of Oakland and the City of Alameda. The Port of Oakland assumed responsibility for coordinating items of local cooperation. Terminal facilities. See Port Series No. 31, "The Ports of Oakland, Alameda, and Richmond, and Ports on San Pablo Bay, Carquinez Strait, and Mare Island Strait," revised 1962. Facilities will be adequate for existing commerce upon completion of 7th Street Terminal under construction to provide an additional nine deep-water berths. Operations and results during fiscal year.

MIDDLE RIVER AND CONNECTING CHANNELS, CALIF. Location. Waterways are part of a complicated network of tidal channels, some natural and some artificial, in the delta of San Joaquin River. Middle River, one of the principal channels, is a bychannel of San Joaquin River, leaving Old River, another bychannel above city of Stockton and rejoining main river about 15 miles below Stockton. Turner Cut enters San Joaquin River 6 miles upstream from Middle River and is connected by Empire Cut to Latham Slough and Middle River. (See Geological Survey, California quadrangles Bouldin, Woodward Island, Holt, Union Island, Stockton, and Lathrop.) Previous projects. For details see page 1290 of Annual Report for 1934. Existing project.

Approved estimated (July 1973) cost for existing project is $27,480,000, of which $25,900,000 is Federal cost, including $1,730,000 for basic recreation facilities, and $1,580,000 non-Federal cost for lands and damages including relocations for downstream levee and channel improvements. 35-8 SACRAMENTO, CALIF., DISTRICT Local interests have contracted with Bureau of Reclamation for irrigation service. For future non-Federal reimbursement, see Local cooperation paragraph. Local interests have also, over a period of years, expended about $300,000 for construction of low levees and clearing downstream channels to provide some local flood protection in the project area. This work is inadequate during major floods. Existing project was adopted by 1962 Flood Control Act (S. Doc. 37, 87th Cong., 1st sess., contains latest published map). Local cooperation. California officially adopted project by chapter 1202 of statutes of 1963, and by chapter 1438 of those statutes authorized State Reclamation Board to furnish assurances that requirements for supplemental channel improvements will be met. With respect to the dam and reservoir, local interests must reimburse the Federal Government the portion of first cost and annual operation and maintenance costs allocated to irrigation function of project. These costs are estimated at 21.7 percent of the joint-use first cost and 15.9 percent of joint-use annual costs. Project authorization provides for project to be financially integrated into the Central Valley project of the Bureau of Reclamation. Irrigation repayment contract was executed by the Bureau with the Merced Irrigation District August 5, 1968. Local interests sponsoring any permanent pool in the reservoir for fish and wildlife or recreation must settle all claims for water rights pertaining to establishment and use of a permanent pool for these purposes. With respect to supplemental channel improvement work, section 3, Flood Control Act of June 22, 1936, applies; relocations include relocation of highway facilities and utilities. Local interests must also preserve, or restore and thereafter maintain, the Fresno River channel from Hidden Lake downstream to the authorized channel work at the capacities prevailing in 1959. Formal assurances for supplemental channel improvements were furnished by State Reclamation Board April 8, 1971. Supplemental assurances required by PL 91-646 (relocation assistance benefits to persons displaced by, or who have real property taken for a Federal public improvement project) were requested September 3, 1971 and furnished September 20, 1971.

This project is an integral unit of overall plan for flood control and other purposes on San Joaquin River and tributaries, and supplements reservoir units of overall plan involving flood control storage on Tuolumne and Stanislaus Rivers and in existing Frianit Reservoir on upper San Joaquin River by provsiding required channel capacity for regulated flows. Cost estimate (Julyv 1973) for existing project is $19,370,000, of which $13,070,000 is Federal cost and $6,300,000 non-Federal cost for lands and damages including relocations. Local interests constructed levee and channel improvement works in area adjacent to river above mouth Merced River in lieu of acquisition of flowage easements at cost of $24,218,629. Left bank levee in Tuolumne River to Merced River reach is considered active and is included in foregoing cost estimate. Existing project was adopted by 1944 Flood Control Act (H. Flood Control Committee Doc. 2, 78th Cong., 2d sess., contains latest published map); as modified by Public Law 327, 84th Congress. The 1944 Flood Control Act authorized $8 million for partial accomplishment of project. Further monetary authorizations of $2,- 500,000, $5 million, $13 million, $2 million, $17 million, $18 million, and $44 million, were provided for this project by Public Laws 235 and 780, 83d Congress, and 85-500, 90-17, 90-483, 91-282, and 92-222, making a total monetary authorization of $109,500,000 available.

Location. Reservoir to be on Martis Creek, a tributary of Truckee River, near Truckee, Calif.; intermittent channel improvements would be on Truckee River in Reno, Nev. (See Geological Survey quadrangles for areas.) Existing project. Provides for construction of 113-foot high rolled-earthfill dam to create a reservoir with gross storage capacity of 20,000 acre-feet for flood control and future municipal and industrial water supply. In conjunction with the dam, the project provides for construction by local interests of intermittent channel improvements in Reno, Nev., necessary to provide a flood-carrying capacity of 14,000 cubic feet per second through the city. Approved cost estimate (July 1973) for existing project is $8,650,000, of which $8,550,000 is Federal cost including $300,000 for basic recreation facilities, and $100,000 is non-Federal cost for channel improvement in Reno, Nev. In addition, local interests have, over a period of years, expended about $200,000 for construction of flood control channels within city of Reno. This work is inadequate during major floods. Existing project was authorized by 1962 Flood Contro Act (H. Doc. 435, 87th Cong., 2d sess., contains latest published map). Local cooperation. Local interests must provide a channel capacity of 14,000 cubic feet per second in Truckee River through Reno, Nev., including necessary modification and relocations of existing structures and facilities. Local interests must maintain completed channel as required to preserve channel capacity of 14,000 cubic feet per second: establish effective regulations to prevent any encroachment within channel in Reno, 35-15 REPORT OF THE CHIEF OF ENGINEERS, U.S. ARMY 1973 and insure that all bridges or other structures to be built or rebuilt across channel in Reno afford an adequate and unrestricted waterway; maintain channel of Truckee River between Reno and the California-Nevada State line clear of all floatable debris and other drift large enough to restrict bridge openings in Reno during floods; and adequately inform interests affected that project (reservoir and related channel improvements) does not provide protection against maximum floods. Formal assurances requested from the Carson- Truckee Water Conservancy District September 8, 1967, were furnished November 13, 1967. Operations and results during fiscal year.

Reservoir is on Kings River, about 25 miles east of Fresno, Calif., and channel improvements are on Kings River downstream from Lemoore weir, about 25 miles south of Fresno. (See Geological Survey quadrangles of area.) Existing project. Improvement is a unit in comprehensive plan for flood control and other related purposes for Sacramento-San Joaquin Basins. Project consists of a 429-foot high concrete gravity dam, including a gated overflow section with a maximum discharge capacity of 391,000 cubic feet per second, creating a reservoir with gross storage capacity of 1 million acre-feet, for flood control, irrigation, and related purposes. Outlet provisions for future power development are included in dam, but Federal construction of power-generating facilities is not authorized. Improvement also includes a limited amount of channel improvement on Kings River and its distributaries on valley floor about 25 miles south of Fresno. Channel improvement work will enlarge channel capacities and regulate flows in lower branches of the Kings River. There are nine public-use and recreation areas: One maintained by the Corps, four by the Forest Service, three jointly by the Corps and concession, and one by Fresno County. Also, five boat access-only areas are maintained by the Corps on the south side of reservoir. Approved cost estimate (July 1973) is $42,330,000, of which $41,- 600,000 is Federal (including $13,700 for basic recreation facilities) and $730,000 non-Federal 35-17 RI~EPORT OF THE CHIEF OF ENGINEERS, U.S. ARMY 1973 for rights-of-way for downstream channel improvements. For future non-Federal reimbursement, see Local cooperation paragraph. Estimated Federal cost of recreation facilities for Pine Flat Lake, to be funded from Code 710 appropriations is $500,100 (July 1973) exclusive of recreation facilities previously provided at a cost of $13,700. In addition, Federal cost of recreation facilities for Pine Flat Lake, funded from Public Works Acceleration Executive Act of 1962 appropriations, was $239,235 (July 1963). Operation and maintenance of dam and reservoir is Federal responsibility. Existing project was adopted by 1944 Flood Control Act (H. Doc. 630, 76th Cong., 3d sess., contains latest published map). Local cooperation. Local interests must reimburse the Federal Government for first costs allocated to irrigation functions of reservoir portion of project in accordance with reclamation law. Under provision of War Department Civil Appropriations Act of 1947, the Secretary of War, with concurrence of the Secretary of the Interior, determined allocation of cost to irrigation should be set at an amount not to exceed $14,250,000. In addition, local interests must pay 37.4 percent of annual maintenance, operation, and replacement costs of dam and reservoir allocated to irrigation function. Repayment contracts between Bureau of Reclamation and the local water users for the irrigation use of the reservoir were executed December 23, 1963. Bureau is administering the contracts in accordance with reclamation law; however, local interests are testing in court the validity of reclamation law in regard to the Pine Flat contracts. Prior to execution of the final contracts, the Bureau provided conservation water to local interests under an interim contract. Irrigation interests paid $11,477,416 for irrigation services through December 31, 1972. With respect to the downstream channel improvements, section 3, Flood Control Act of June 22, 1936, applies. Kings River Conservation District represents local interests; assurances were accepted November 20, 1959. Local interests have furnished all requirements for construction rights-of-way for construction of channel improvements required to date. Three concessionaires- one each at Lakeridge Marina (Deer Creek), Lakeview Marina (Lombardo's Fishing Village), and Trimmer Marina provided public- use facilities in accordance with lease agreements with the Secretary of the Army. Estimated cost of facilities installed by these concessionaires is $347,000. Fresno County developed public-use facilities on an 85-acre tract immediately downstream from dam for picnicking, camping, swimming, and playground activities, at an estimated cost of $88,500 under provisions of a license agreement. Forest Service operates a picnic area at upper end of reservoir and two campgrounds and a picnic area at sites along reservoir perimeter. Total cost of development of these sites is about $37,500. Licenses. License No. 1988, effective April 1, 1955, was issued by Federal Power Commission to Pacific Gas and Electric Co. for hydroelectric power development of North Fork Kings River by the company upstream from the Pine Flat reservoir. Under interim Contract No. DA-04-167-eng-1182 with the Department of the Army, Pacific Gas and Electric Co. paid for storage of power water in the Pine Flat reservoir May 15, 1954, through March 31, 1955.

Plan provides for an entrance channel 6 feet deep and 50 feet wide, and a protective breakwater with a top width of 16 feet and crest elevations of 14.0 feet. Mean lower low water is plane of reference. Existing project was authorized by Section 107 of the 1960 River and Harbor Act, as amended by Section 310 of the 1965 River and Harbor Act, and approved July 10, 1968. Estimated project costs are $200,000 (1971), of which non-Federal costs are $92,200. Local cooperation. River and Harbor Act of 1965 provides that local interests be required to: provide lands, easements, and rights-of-way required for construction and subsequent maintenance of the project; hold and save the United States free from damages; construct, operate and maintain adequate mooring facilities, open to all on equal terms: accomplish without cost to the United States such alterations of utility facilities as required for project; and contribute in cash 49.5 percent of the Federal first cost of constructmng the breakwater and entrance channel, such contribution is presently estimated to be $92,200 (1971). Additional non-Federal work consisting of dredging in berthing area and construction of mooring facilities, estimated to cost $60,000, will be accomplished by local interest. Terminal facilities. Two small floats adequate for accommodation of about 29 boats, are owned and operated by the port. An asphalt launching ramp lies on adjacent port property. Operations and results during fiscal year. New Work: In a letter dated November 16,1971, the Port of Alsea requested a one year extension for deferral of the project due to present economic conditions of the area. There has been no change in project status. A letter of intent was sent to Port of Alsea in June 1973 requesting disposition of project. Condition at end of fiscal year. Detailed project report was approved by Chief of Engineers July 10, 1968. 37-2 __ PORTLAND, OREG., DISTRICT 2. CHETCO RIVER, OREG. Location.

(See Coast and Geodetic Survey Charts 5702 and 5896.) Existing project. Construction of two jetties originally authorized was accomplished December 1957 at a cost of $489,554. Modification in 1965 authorized an entrance 120 feet wide and 14 feet deep; extension to north jetty about 450 feet in length with an increase in elevation of existing portion; a barge turning basin about 250 feet wide, 650 feet long, and 14 feet deep; a protective dike about 1,800 feet long with a top elevation of 18 feet; and a small-boat access channel 100 feet wide and 12 feet deep. Mean lower low water is plane of reference. Tidal range in cove between lower low water and mean higher high water is 6.9 feet and extreme is from 2.6 feet below to 9.7 feet above mean lower low water. Cost of project modification (1970) is $2,- 061,000. Existing project was authorized by 1945 River and Harbor Act (H. Doc 817, 77th Cong., 2d sess.) and 2965 River and Harbor Act (S. Doc. 21, 89th Cong., 1st sess.) Local cooperation. Fully complied with. Terminal facilities. At Sporthaven dock there is a private facility open to all on equal terms for loading lumber and wood chip barges. This facility is barely adequate for existing commerce. A small-boat basin is downstream from town of Harbor, Oreg. Operations and results during fiscal year. Maintenance: A total of 64,510 cubic yards of material was removed by U.S. hopper dredge Pacific and rental equipment. Condition at end of fiscal year. Construction of jetties was completed December 1957. Removal of rock pinnacles and an abandoned bridge structure was accomplished in June 1959. Under authorized modification of October 1965, two contracts were completed. Construction of north jetty extension and excavation of entrance channel was initiated July 1968 and completed July 1969; and construction of a dike at the mouth, and excavation of entrance channel, turning basin and small-boat basin were initiated September 1969 and completed March 1970. 3.

INSPECTION OF COMPLETED FLOOD CONTROL PROJECTS Funds appropriated for inspection of completed local flood protection works are used to determine condition of completed works and to ascertain whether those works are being properly maintained by local interests. A total of 58 leveed areas and 209 bank protection works were inspected at various locations along both banks of Lower Columbia River below Bonneville Dam, along Oregon Coast and in Willamette River Basin. Of this total, 35 leveed areas in Oregon and 11 leveed areas in Washington along Lower Columbia River; and 12 leveed areas and 3 revetments along Oregon Coast were inspected July 1972 through June 1973. Also during May 1973, 206 revetments along Willamette River and tributaries were inspected. A representative of sponsoring districts accompanied the Portland District representatives performing the levee inspections. Aerial inspections of revetments in Willamette River Basin was supplemented by an on site inspection at locations requiring maintenance. Deficiencies in maintenance and need for repairs were discussed with sponsoring districts' representatives and a report was made to each sponsor with recommendations for improving maintenance. The campaign to improve maintenance of completed Federal projects initiated by House Appropriations Committee on Civil Functions was continued. Periodic contact was maintained with uncooperative areas reported in fiscal year 1972 to ascertain any change in attitude and to provide technical assistance, if requested. Of the 161 local flood protection projects inspected in Portland District, 11 were reported deficient in maintenance. Fiscal year costs were $30,435 and costs to June 30, 1973 were $371,237. 47. SCHEDULING FLOOD CONTROL RESERVOIR OPERATIONS. Corps of Engineers monitored flood control operations at three Bureau of Reclamation sponsored projects: Prineville, Ochoco, and Emigrant Lake and Mossyrock, a municipally operated power project by the Tacoma City Light. The Bureau of Reclamation Projects were partially constructed with flood control funds and thereby this phase of the project operation is subject to monitormng by the Corps of Engineers under Section 7, Flood Control Act. Monitoring of Mossyrock flood control operation is assigned to the Corps of the Federal Power Commission as the Mossyrock license calls for specific flood control regulation. The Bureau sponsored projects during Fiscal Year 1973, were not required to operate for flood control as no significant highwater occurred and spring runoff from snowmelt was much below normal. Only one significant highwater occurred at Mossyrock. Due to regulation during January 1973, Mossyrock stored 96,300 acre feet during the highwater and was operating in the power pool during the duration, never attaining minimum flood control pool. Outflow was controlled to a peak of 21,800 cfs at Castle Rock, much below the 70,000 cfs goal for that gaging station. Prineville was the only reservoir to reach normal pool following the flood season. Ochoco refilled to 61 percent of its irrigation and joint-use storage while Emigrant Lake filled to 93 percent. As of June 30, 1973 Mossyrock was still filling and was 81 percent full. Total cost of monitoring the four projects during the Fiscal Year was $2,032. 48.

COLLECTION AND STUDY OF BASIC DATA International water studies. The Columbia River Treaty between Canada and the United States of America relating to Cooperative Development of the Water Resources of the Columbia River Basin was signed at Washington, D.C. on January 17, 1961, and the exchange of ratifications took place on 16 September 1964. Implementation of the Treaty United States and Canada entities under the guidance of the Permanent Engineering Board has continued. The 37-31 REPORT OF THE CHIEF OF ENGINEERS, U.S. ARMY 1973 two permanent committees established by the entities, the Operating Committee and the Hydrometeorological Committee, continue to function. The Operating Committee has established Assured Operating Plans through the 1977-78 operating year, and Detailed Operating Plans through the 1972-73 operating year. The Columbia River Treaty Flood Control Operating Plan was completed October 1972. Costs during fiscal year were $72,004. Flood Plain Information Studies. Field surveys and other means were used to collect basic flood data to compile channel cross sections, water surface profiles, stage hydrographs and flooded-area maps for inclusion in two flood plain information reports. A narrative, including a description of the flood situation along each stream studied, was also prepared for publication in the reports. Both reports were started in Fiscal Year 1973, and now are near completion. They are identified as the "Sweet Home, Oregon" and "Brownsville, Oregon," Flood Plain Information Reports. Completed studies are identified in Table 37-R. Costs for flood plain information studies during the fiscal year were $247,516. Total costs for collection and study of basic data were $319,520. 61. RESEARCH AND DEVELOPMENT Water quality investigation. Program of observing water temperatures and meteorological data at several of the larger and more significant storage projects in Willamette Basin is still active. The Fish Commission of Oregon is still active in monitoring specific projects where they have an interest. Stored water was released during the low flow season to increase streamflow for navigation, pollution abatement, and fish life. The dissolved oxygen content of Willamette River in the Portland area is no longer a barrier to the fall run of salmon that start moving into Willamette River in late August. The Corps Waterways Experiment Station is developing a computer program for the Portland District that will determine the turbidity that can be expected at future storage projects. This program is being utilized in the study of Rogue River projects. Nitrogen supersaturation has become a water quality problem on Columbia River as it relates to the fishery industry. Studies are underway to determine the degree of nitrogen supersaturation and how best to alleviate or minimize this very serious problem. The State of Oregon has enacted very exacting laws with regard to this nitrogen problem. A computer program for determining the effect of storage projects on downstream water temperature has been developed and its application has been used extensively during the past year to study the downstream effects and enhancement that proposed storage projects will have on river temperatures. Hydrologic studies Hydrologic studies for Flood Plain Information Reports and Flood Insurance Reports have been numerous as local interests are becoming more concerned about damages resulting from floods. Environment and ecology are becoming real project considerations and they are incorporated into all hydrologic studies. The start o a real time automated reporting hydrologic network for reservoir regulation is underway with three design memorandums and plans and specifications completed in Fiscal Year 1973. Improvements in procedures to determine reservoir temperatures, nitrogen supersaturation, dissolved oxygen, suspended sediment, turbidity, design floods, flood forecasting and flood regulation are a continuing program. Civil Works Investigations. The erosion test program that was being performed in the Detroit Test Conduit (ES 825) has been combined with ES 628, Epoxy Resins and Other Adhesives for Concrete. No work has been done on ES 825 during the past year. No tests were conducted in the Detroit Test Chute (ES 826) during the year. Work performed consisted essentially of necessary maintenance. Computer programs. Utilization of computer programs in the design and analysis of complex structures is a continuing program. Data reduction and computations of earthwork quantities, control of survey work, and economic analysis is continuing. Installation of a new electronic plotter (scheduled for FY 73) has been delayed. Expected installation will be sometime in FY 74. Total research and development costs were $10,642. 37-32 PORTLAND, OREG., DISTRICT TABLE 37-A COST AND FINANCIAL STATEMENT See Section Total Cost to in Text Project Funding FY 70 FY 71 FY 72 FY 73 June 30, 1973 1.

On Blackfoot River in Caribou County, Idaho, about 40 miles southeast of city * All cost and financial statements for projects are listed at the end of this chapter. All other tables are referenced in text and also appear at the end of this chapter. 39-1 REPORT OF THE CHIEF OF ENGINEERS, U.S. ARMY 1973 of Blackfoot. (See Geological Survey quadrangle sheets Paradise Valley, Cranes Flat, Portneuf, and Henrys Fork location and surroundings in Immediate vicinity of project.) Existing project. Blackfoot Reservoir is owned and operated by Fort Hall Agency of Bureau of Indian Affairs, Department of Interior. Main dam, which is about 55 feet high above streambed, is a rockfill structure with a concrete core. China Hat Dam, an earthfill structure, closes an arm of reservoir near its upstream end to minimize storage loss due to seepage in pervious formation of that area. Existing main dam structure includes a 3,800-cubic-foot-per-second spillway on the right abutment and an outlet tunnel in left abutment with a capacity of 2,000 cubic feet per second. Reservoir has a usable storage capacity of 413,000 acre-feet at design maximum water surface elevation 6124. However, due to experience with seepage losses from southern end of reservoir, operating level has been limited to about elevation 6120, or about 340,000 acre-feet storage capacity. Water stored in reservoir is used to irrigate lands in Fort Hall Indian Reservation in vicinity of Blackfoot and south. Recommended modifications to the project would provide 38,000 acre-feet additional storage capacity for flood control. Modifications would permit operation of reservoir for flood control to a maximum water surface elevation of 6126. The spillway capacity would be increased to 21,700 cubic feet per second by lowering crest elevation from 6118.5 to 6112 and increasing spillway width from 52 feet to 94 feet. Spillway would be equipped with new gates. Outlet works would be modernized and rehabilitated for flood control operation. China Hat Dam would be raised 10 feet and Idaho State Highway No. 34 would be raised in grade for approximately one-half mile along with grade raising of two existing bridges. Recommended modification was authorized by Flood Control Act of 1962. Construction to be accomplished by the Corps, with continued operation of project by Bureau of Indian Affairs. Estimated Federal cost of proposed modifications (July 1973) is $3,560,000. Local cooperation. None required. Operations and results during fiscal year. On 21 November 1972, a public meeting was held in Soda Springs with the summer home owners explaining the project operations. An Environmental Impact Statement is being prepared. Condition at end of fiscal year. Hydrology design memorandum has been approved.

Anchorage is in southcentral Alaska on the southeast shore of Knik Arm, north of Turnagain Arm near its junction with Cook Inlet. (See Coast and Geodetic Survey Charts 8553 and 8557.) Existing project. Provides for a deepwater harbor by dredging adjacent to municipal docks to a depth of 35 feet below mean lower low water and constructing two jetties or other protective works when required, along northerly and southerly ends. Dredging was completed June 1967; construction of jetties has been deferred. Tidal range between mean lower low water and mean higher high water is 29.0 feet and extreme range is 42.0 feet. (See table 40-B for authorizing legislation.) Local cooperation. Fully complied with. Terminal facilities. Four wharves capable of handling oceangoing vessels and open for public use. Two are owned by the city; a general cargo wharf and an oil handling and bunkering facility. The other two are privately owned. Five additional privately owned wharves are used for industrial purposes. Expansion of the city general cargo wharf is scheduled for FY 1974. * All cost and financial statements for projects are listed at the end of this chapter. All other tables are referenced in text and also appear at the end of this chapter. 40-1 REPORT OF THE CHIEF OF ENGINEERS, U.S. ARMY 1973 Operations and results during the fiscal year. Regular funds, maintenance: Under maintenance dredging contract awarded June 1972, 91,598 cubic yards of material were removed from harbor area August and September 1972. Annual maintenance dredging contract was awarded June 4, 1973. Condition at end of fiscal year. Dredging was accomplished jointly by local interests and United States Army to provide a depth of 35 feet alongside the newly constructed City Dock and 32 feet at a distance of 50 feet from Ocean Dock in July 1961; city and Army funds were used. Ocean Dock was destroyed in the March 27, 1964 earthquake. Emergency dredging was performed at City Dock July and August 1965. The first phase of new work in the authorized project, consisting of dredging the port area to a depth of 35 feet, was accomplished October 1966 through June 1967. During the design stage, the project basin was modified to match City Dock, including expansion then underway. Maintenance dredging was performed September and October 1968; May and June 1969 (emergency dredging); July, August, and September 1969; and August and September of 1970 through 1972. 2. BETHEL SMALL-BOAT HARBOR, ALASKA Location. The village of Bethel is 65 miles upriver on the north bank of the Kuskokwim River, which flows through southwestern Alaska. (See Coast and Geodetic Survey Chart 9302 and USGS Map Bethel D8.) Existing project. Project includes provision of a 7,700-foot long small-boat harbor and entrance channel by deepening, widening, and straightening of the upper 6,800 feet of Brown's Slough. Estimated cost of the project (1973) is $1,000,000 in Federal funds, plus $34,000 from local interests (see paragraph on local cooperation). Range between mean lower low water and mean higher high water is 3.4 feet and extreme tidal range is 4.0 feet, during low summer water flow in Kuskokwim River.

Memorandum of Understanding, providing for Forest Service personnel stationed in area to do clearing, signed August 1972. Clearing postponed pending completion of Environmental Impact Statement by Forest Service. 20. OTHER AUTHORIZED NAVIGATION PROJECTS See table 40-C. 21. NAVIGATION WORK UNDER SPECIAL AUTHORIZATION Navigation activities pursuant to section 107, Public Law 86-645 (Preauthorization). Fiscal year costs were $37,057 for Wrangell Small-Boat Harbor, $34,610 for Hamines Small- Boat Harbor, $9,532 for Unalaska, $29,817 for Seldovia Harbor. (See section 2 for Bethel Harbor.) 22. CHENA RIVER LAKES, ALASKA Location In the vicinity of Fairbanks, Alaska and encompassing the Tanana River, Chena River, Little Chena River, and their tributaries. (See USGS map Fairbanks Cl, Dl, D2, and Big Delta D6.) Existing project. Provides for a dam on the Chena River, 17 miles east of Fairbanks, a dam 40-10 ALASKA DISTRICT on the Little Chena River about 11 miles upstream from its confluence with the main Chena River, and a 27-mile levee stystem along the Tanana and Chena Rivers. Estimated Federal Cost (January 1973) is $111,000,000; estimated non-Federal cost is $10,395,000 (cash contri- bution $424,000, other costs $9,971,000) for rights-of-way and relocations. The current Federal cost estimate is an increase of $11,000,000 from the latest estimate of $100,000,000 submitted to Congress. This increase is due to higher price levels. Local cooperation. Local interests are required to hold and save the United States free from damages due to construction of the levees and drainage works; provide without cost to the United States, all lands, easements, and rights-of-way necessary for the construction of the levee and interior drainage works; accomplish without cost to the United States, all necessary relocations of buildings, streets, and utilities as required for the levee project; maintain and operate the levee system and interior drainage works after completion in accordance with regulations prescribed by the Secretary of the Army. The North Star Borough formally signed this agreement on 1 February 1973. Operations and results during fiscal year. Regular funds, new work: A public meeting was held in August 1972 which showed favorable support of the levee project. The State of Alaska indicated they were not interested in becoming the recreation sponsor since they planned to develop the upper Chena for recreation. Without a signed contract covering recreation, a construction start could not be granted. Thus on April 2, 1973 recreation was officially deleted as a project purpose thereby decreasing Federal and non-Federal costs by $848,000. Construction funds were received in April for Phase I of the Tanana Levee with the construction contract being awarded on June 22, 1973 for $2,397,950. Condition at end of fiscal year. Preconstruction planning for Phase II of the Tanana River Levee initiated alinement alternatives being studied with a final choice to be made during FY 74. Design of interior drainage works began in June. Work is being accelerated to prepare field data for model study of Chena River outlet structure and Moose Creek Dam Phase I, foundation excavation. 23. KLUTINA RIVER, COPPER CENTER, ALASKA Location. On Richardson Highway 180 miles from Anchorage and 250 miles from Fairbanks, Alaska, just upstream of the confluence of Klutina and Copper Rivers. (See Geological Survey Map Valdez D4.) Existing project.

OTHER AUTHORIZED FLOOD CONTROL PROJECTS See table 40-D. 26. FLOOD CONTROL WORK UNDER SPECIAL AUTHORIZATION Emergency flood control activities-repair, flood fighting, and rescue work (Public Law 99, 84th Congress, and antecedent legislation). Federal costs for fiscal year were $24,716 for advance preparation and $9,382 for emergency operations. Multiple-Purpose Projects Including Power 27. SNETTISHAM, ALASKA Location. At mouth of Speel River, between Crater Lake to the west and Long Lake to the north, 28 nautical miles southeast of Juneau, Alaska. (See Coast and Geodetic Survey Chart 8227.) Existing project. Snettisham is a two-stage project. The Long Lake Phase of the first stage construction is scheduled to provide Juneau, by November 1973, with 46,700 kilowatts of power by tapping Long Lake, elevation 815 feet, to drive two turbines at tidewater. Water will be transported to the underground powerhouse 40-11 REPORT OF THE CHIEF OF ENGINEERS, U.S. ARMY 1973 through an approximately horizontal tunnel 8,- 400 feet long and a subsequent 1,400-foot penstock dropping at a 46 degree angle to tidewater. Power from the two generators will be transmitted along 138 kilovolt overhead lines supported by colored towers with a submarine cable traversing Taku Inlet to Juneau. By October 1977, 23,350 kilowatts of power from Crater Lake Phase is scheduled to provide Juneau with additional power. Crater Lake, elevation 1,022 feet, will be tapped to drive a third turbine to be placed in the powerhouse constructed under the Long Lake Phase. Estimated Federal cost of first stage construction (1972) is $83,000,000. (See table 40-B for authorizing legislation.) A dam originally planned to increase the energy capability of Long Lake has been deferred to the second stage construction. Total estimated Federal cost of construction (1972) is $93,500,000. Local cooperation. None required. Operations and results during fiscal year. Regular funds, new work: During fiscal year 1973, 50 percent of the towers for the transmission line have been installed; 75 percent of the cable terminal buildings is complete; with the total contract for the transmission line being 60 percent complete. All other features of the Long Lake Phas are virtually complete. All necessary supply contracts for equipment were awarded. No work has been accomplished on the Crater Lake Phase or under the second stage. Condition at end of fiscal year. The first stage of the project is essentially 69 percent complete at a cost of approximately $57,637,000 to date. Anticipated power-on-line date for Long Lake Phase is November 1973. 28. BRADLEY LAKE, ALASKA Location. Near head of Kachemak Bay near southwestern end of Kenai Peninsula, Alaska, about 100 air miles south of Anchorage and 25 miles northeast of Homer. (See Coast and Geodetic Survey Chart 8552.) Existing project. Provides for a main dam raising waters of Bradley Lake from an elevation of 1,090 feet to elevation 1,196 feet; two small dams to divert water from nearby drainages; a power tunnel, surge tank, and penstock to deliver water to a powerhouse located at tidewater, with an installed capacity of 64,000 kilowatts and transmission facilities to serve the Cook Inlet area. Latest cost estimate for new work (1971) is $152,000,000. (See table 40-B for authorizing legislation.) Local cooperation. None required. Operations and results during fiscal year. Regular funds, Advance Engineering and Design: The feasibility report was submitted to the marketing agency in July 1971 for determination of the financial feasibility of Bradley Lake power. Condition at end of fiscal year. Reappraisal of the economic and financial feasibility was initiated in September 1968. Engineering studies, design, cost estimates, and economic studies have been completed for 12 separate schemes of development for a peaking plant rather than a baseload facility in an effort to maximize the water resource available and to meet projected demands for peaking power. Investigations have been make to determine the size of plant output best suited to meet existing and future marketing conditions. These investigations are being coordinated with the Alaska Power Administration, and United States Department of the Interior, the potential marketing agency. A review of the 1969 Alaska Power Survey by the Federal Power Commission will be completed in late FY 1974. This review will update an inventory of power sites, market areas, need projections, and intertie networks responsive to present growth and resource development in Alaska. The results of this review will have significant bearing on the marketability of Bradley Lake power. 29. SURVEYS Fiscal year cost of $282,516 for surveys include $188,873 for navigation studies, $43,643 for flood control studies, $27,000 for special studies and $23,000 for coordination studies. 30. COLLECTION AND STUDY OF BASIC DATA Technical assistance, information, flood plain management guidance, and other flood plain management services have been provided to military and nonmilitary Federal agencies, State, and local government agencies, and others at a fiscal year cost of $134,910.

The Board of Engineers for Rivers and Harbors is a continuing body created by section 3, 1902 River and Harbor Act. The Board is comprised of 7 senior engineer officers: The Chairman, five members who are Division Engineers (rotative basis) from continental U. S. Army Engineer Divisions, and the Resident Member, who directs the staff. Ap ointments are made by the Chief of Engineers for unspecified periods. The Board meets on call of the Chairman. Statutory duties of the Board as set forth in the act of June 13, 1902, and subsequent acts and amendments are: (a) to conduct an independent review of survey reports covering projects for river and harbor, flood control, and multiple-purpose improvements prepared by the Corps in response to an act of the Congress or a resolution ofthe House or Senate Public Works Committees, and to report its conclusions and recommendations thereon to the Chief of Engineers, who forwards the reports with his conclusions and recommendations to the Secretary of the Army for transmission to the Congress; (b) to conduct an independent review of special reports ordered by the Congress and report thereon in the same manner as for survey reports when directed by the Chief of Engineers; (c) to consider and approve general plans for major modification and reconstruction of any lock, canal, canalized river or other work for te use or benefit of navigation. The functions of the former Beach Erosion Board pertaining to review of reports concerning erosion of the shores of coastal and lake waters, and the protection of such shores, were transferred to the Board under section 3, Public Law 88-172. An additional statutory duty was assigned the Board under the terms of the Merchant Marine Act of June 5, 1920. Under this act, the Board, in cooperation with the Maritime Administration, collects, compiles, and publishes information on characteristics of U. S. ports. Physical characteristics of the ports are the responsibility of the Corps, and administrative characteristics are the responsibility of the Maritime Administration. In addition to its statutory duties, the following duties are the more significant among those assigned by the Chief of Engineers: review Corps policies and procedures as directed, review reports of other Federal agencies pertaining to water resource development; conduct investigations and studies of economics of ports and waterways; and conduct a year-long program of in-service training for planners generally at GS-12 and GS-13 levels in all aspects of Federal water resources development to assist in meeting the needs of the Corps for increased numbers o qualified personnel in this field. Also, the Resident Member is second alternate for the Secretary of the Army on the Foreign-Trade Zones Board, first alternate for the Chief of Engineers on the National Capital Planning Commission, and ex-officio secretary of the American Section, Permanent International Association of Navigation Congresses, a quasi-official organization. On June 30, 1973, the Board was composed of the following members: Major General A. P. Rollins, Jr., Chairman; Major General Charles C. Noble, Division Engineer, US Army Engineer Division, Lower Mississippi Valley; Major General Harold R. Parfitt, Division Engineer, US Army Engineer Division, Southwestern; Major General Ernest Graves, Division Engineer, US Army Engineer Division, North Central; Major General Richard H. Groves, Division Engineer, US Army Engineer Division, North Atlantic; Brigadier General George B. Fink, Division Engineer, US Army Engineer Division, South Pacific; and Colonel William G. Dratz, Resident Member. In addition to the foregoing, the following officers were also assigned for a period during the year to membership on the Board: Major General Willard Roper, Chairman; Major General Kenneth T. Sawyer, Division En'- neer, US Army Engineer Division, North Pacific; Major General William L. Starnes, US Army Engineer Division, Ohio River; and Colonel John T. Rhett, Resident Member. A summary of investigations authorized by the Congress from establishment of the Board in 1902 to the end of the fiscal year 1973, the number of authorizations completed, the number of authorizations remaining to be reported on, and the number of reports submitted under continuing authorizations are set forth in Table 41-A under Board of Engineers for Rivers and Harbors. From 1902 through June 30, 1973, the Board took Final Action on 8,168 reports, recommending favorably on 3,613 and unfavorably 41-1 REPORT OF THE CHIEF OF ENGINEERS, U.S. ARMY 1973 on 4,555. During fiscal 1973 the Board held 4 meetings of 1 to 2 days' duration in Washington. The Board considered 71 reports, acting favorably on 20, unfavorably on 45, deferred action on 4, returned 1, and reporting officers withdrew 1.The Board recommended construction of projects totaling $939,169,800 of which $803,629,800 was the estimated U.S. cost and $135,540,000 the cost to local interests for work and cash contributions. The 45 unfavorable reports acted on by the Board contained no cost estimates as they dealt with improvements that were obviously unfavorable or no longer necessary. The Board also submitted comments on 68 reports as follows: 1 Type II Comprehensive Study, 23 reviews on small projects prepared under continuing authorities, and 29 reviews of General Design Memorandums. Board Staff comments were submitted on 2 Mississippi River Commission Reports, and on 13 miscellaneous reports. Studies prescribed by various River and Harbor Acts and Section 8, Merchant Marine Act of 1920, continued, and the results were published in the series of reports titled "Port Series" (See Table 41-B). 41-2 REPORT OF THE CHIEF OF ENGINEERS, U.S. ARMY 1973 TABLE 41-A BOARD OF ENGINEERS FOR RIVERS AND HARBORS Reports Submitted During Fiscal Year Authorities Authorities Authorities Authorities Authorities 1973 (Under Con- Received Received Completed Completed Remaining tinuing.

Field operations of the Commission restricted to levee construction under Section 6, 1928 Flood Control Act (local interests contributing one-third of costs and furnishing rights-of-way) are conducted within the following limits by two districts which report directly to the Commission on matters within their jurisdiction-St. Louis District: Mississippi River (Sec. 6) levees from upper limits of Memphis District to Clemens Station, Mo. (1,254 miles AHP) on right bank and Hamburg Bay, Ill. (1,215 miles AHP) on left bank, and the Illinois River from its mouth to mile 120 at Havana, Illinois. Rock Island District: Mississippi River (Sec. 6) levees from upper limits of St. Louis District to Rock Island, Ill. (1,437 miles AHP). Work accomplished is shown in Table 42-N. MISSISSIPPI RIVER AND ALLUVIAL VALLEY BELOW CAPE GIRARDEAU, MO. Location and description. Mississippi River rises in Lake Itasca, Minn., and flows generally southerly for 2,340 miles through central portion of United States to empty into Gulf of Mexico 115 miles below New Orleans. It is improved for barge navigation for 1,832 miles to Minneapolis, Minnesota. The Mississippi River and its major tributaries, the Missouri, Ohio, St. Francis, White, Arkansas, Yazoo, and Red-Old Rivers, drain 1,245,000 square miles in all or part of 31 states between the Rocky and Appalachian Mountains and part of two Canadian provinces. Below Cape Girardeau, Mo., 53 miles above Ohio River, river bottom lands widen abruptly into an alluvial valley of 35,460 square miles which was originally subject to flood overflow. A major part of alluvial valley has been protected from floods by levees which confine floodflows within a flood plain having an average width of 5 miles. (See map of alluvial valley of Mississippi River, scale 1:500,000.) Observations made by Mississippi River Commission to June 30, 1973, show approximate maximum and minimum discharges between levees as follows: Cairo to White River, 2,000,000 and 70,000 cubic feet per second; thence to Red River, 2,150,000 and 90,000 cubic feet per second; thence to the Gulf of Mexico, 1,500,000 and 50,000 cubic feet per second in Mississippi River and 660,000 and 11,000 cubic feet per second in Atchafalaya River. As the 1927 floodflow was not confined between levees, maximum discharges recorded do not include entire flow of the 1927 flood, maximum of record below White River. High water and flood stages usually occur in late winter or early spring, but great floods such as that of 1937 occurred as early as January. Low water stages generally prevail from August to December. Extreme ranges in stages recorded at representative gages (rounded to nearest foot) are 60 feet at Cairo, 49 feet at Memphis, 57 feet at Red River Landing, and 21 feet at New Orleans (Carrollton). The river is nontidal above Red River Landing where tidal amplitude rarely exceeds 0.1 foot during extreme low water. Previous projects. For details see page 1944, Annual Report for 1932, and page 1682, Annual Report for 1937. Existing project. The Mississippi River and tributaries project in the alluvial valley between Head of Passes, La., and Cape Girardeau, Mo., provides protection from floods by means of levees, floodwalls, floodways, reservoirs (in Yazoo and St. Francis Basins), bank stabilization, and channel improvements in and along the river and its tributaries and outlets insofar as affected 42-2 MISSISSIPPI RIVER COMMISSION by backwater of Mississippi River, including levee work on the main stem between Cape Girardeau and Rock Island. When completed, 23,621 square miles will be protected from the MississippFi River project flood. The project also provides or a 12- by 300-foot navigation channel between Baton Rouge, La., and Cairo, Ill.; for salinity- control structures; and for channel realinement and improvement including bank stabilization and dikes to reduce flood heights, control natural tendency of river to lengthen by meandering, and protect levees from being destroyed by caving banks. Locations of major main stem Mississippi River improvements are shown in Table 42-A and those for off-main stem tributaries are shown in Table 42-B. Pertinent data on dams and lakes are shown in Table 42-C. Authorizing and incorporating legislation are shown in Tables 42-D and 42-E. Summary of presently estimated Federal cost of authorized improvements is shown in Table 42-F. Construction of the existing project began in 1928 and has continued throughout ensuing years. Based on the estimated cost of $4,597,343,000 (July 1, 1973 price levels) and actual expenditures through June 30, 1973 of $1,795,606,000, the entire project is about 39 percent complete. Recommended modifications. None. Local cooperation. The Flood Control Act of 1928, as amended, applies. Such requirements have, in general, been complied with by local interests. Terminal facilities. See volume 1 of two-volume Port Series No. 21, 1969, "Ports on the Gulf Coast of the United States," for Baton Rouge and Lake Charles, La.; Port Series No. 20, 1970, for New Orleans, La.; also folio of Flood Control and Navigation Maps of Mississippi River, Cairo, Ill., to the Gulf of Mexico (40th edition), 1972. Project cost. Total monetary authorizations, including the modifications to June 30, 1973, are $1,948,922,600. Total allotted for flood control, including maintenance charges through August 18, 1941, chargeable under authorizations to June 30, 1973, was $1,823,861,700. (See Table 42-S.) (See also Tables 42-R, 42-T, and 42-U for additional financial statements.)

MV Mississippi en route on the Mississippi River from Cairo, Ill., to the mouth of Old River, La., thence from Old River to the mouth of Three Rivers and down the Atchafalaya River to Morgan City, Louisiana. Major features of the project were inspected, including bank protection works, contraction works, levees, and general channel conditions, to the extent permitted by river stages. Public meetings were held, at which representatives of local governmental agencies, navigation, levee, commercial, and other interests presented problems pertaining to flood control and navigation. It was noted on this trip that river stages were unusually high for that time of year and in view of the potential for a major flood, the President, Mississippi River Commission, acting in his dual role as Division Engineer, Lower Mississippi Valley Division, directed that the regular biennial flood fight exercise be advanced to as early as possible in 1973 and that the scenario include all possible realism. As a part of the exercise, floodway control structures were tested to assure their reliability. The 288th session was held, February 14, 1973, on board the U. S. MV Lipscomb at Vicksburg, Mississippi. The Commissioners were briefed on a study of the feasibility of exporting water from the Mississippi River system to water- deficient areas in west Texas and eastern New Mexico. The 289th session, scheduled to be held May 14-19, 1973, was cancelled owing to the extreme high water obtaining in the lower Mississippi Vallev. Alluvial valley mapping: Contoured quadrangles and general maps of the alluvial valley are available for departmental use and public distribution under prescribed regulations. Road-map-type information folders of principal portions of overall project were published along with papers on the subject of flood control and navigation. Preparation and publication of quadrangle maps (scale 1:62,500) continued. The 1972 (40th) edition of the folio of flood control and navigation maps, scale 1:62,500, covering Mississippi River from Cairo, Ill., to Gulf of Mexico was compiled and printed. Some 23,671 flight-line miles of black-and-white aerial photography (various scales) and 283 hours of oblique photography were flown along Mississippi River and tributaries in the New Orleans, Vicksburg, and Memphis Districts. In addition, 3,094 flight-line miles of infrared color and 252 miles in color were flown in the Vicksburg District. Plan of Development for Civil Works Map is in progress. Work accomplished in the Districts: New Orleans District-Series conversions of the Opelousas, Carencro, Arnaudville, St. Martinville, Lake Chicot, Centerville, Bayou Sale, and Point au Fer, La., quadrangles are in progress. Vicksburg District-Series conversions of U. S. Geological Survey 1:24,000 scale quadrangles to 1:62,500 scale with addition of flood control features of the Alsatia and Lake Providence, Miss. and La.; Greenville, Miss. and Ark.; Readland, Ark., La., and Miss.; Gurdon, Center Point, and 42-3 REPORT OF THE CHIEF OF ENGINEERS, U.S. ARMY 1973 Murfreesboro, Ark., quadrangles were printed.

Geological Survey 1:24,000 scale quadrangles to 1:62,500 scale of Martin, Tenn.; Wickliffe and Hickman, Ky.; and Bayoaville, Mo., were printed. Series conversions of New Madrid, Portageville, and Caruthersville, Mo., are ready for printing. Color separations of series conversions of Holly Grove, Brinkley, Marvell, and Hunter, Ark., are under way. Revision of White River navigation folio is in the process of being printed. Surveys, gages, and observations: Hydrographic surveys, construction surveys, and special surveys and inspections were made as required. Gages were maintained and discharge observations made. Results thereof are presented in detail in annual pamphlets issued by the Districts. FLOODS: Heavy rains that fell during the fall of 1972 and spring of 1973, over the upper Mississippi River, lower Missouri River, and the Ohio River Valley, caused stages in the lower Mississippi Valley to exceed those experienced since 1937. Severe damage was confined to unprotected areas or those with incomplete protection. The backwater areas of the Yazoo River in Mississippi and the Red River in Louisiana were particularly hard hit. It is estimated that damages incurred as a result of the flood were in excess of $400 million, as compared to approximately $7.5 billion that would have occurred without the existing flood control works. A comprehensive report of the 1973 flood is being prepared. Observations in the Districts: Memphis District- Mississippi River crest stage of 55.7 feet at Cairo gage on April 2, 1973, and maximum discharge of 1,519,400 cubic feet per second, occurred on April 4, 1973, at Hickman, Ky., and crest stage of 40.5 feet at Memphis on May 8, 1973, with maximum discharge of 1,633,000 cubic feet on April 1, 1973. Vicksburg District-Stages on the Mississippi River were above normal during the year. Maximum stages occurred in May with crest stages 3.6 feet above flood stage at Arkansas City, 10.1 feet above flood stage at Vicksburg, and 8.7 feet above flood stage at Natchez. The Ouachita River stages were very high during the year. Crest stages occurred from mid-April to mid-May 1973. They were 7.9 feet above flood stage at Arkadelphia and 12.5 feet above flood stage at Camden, Arkansas. Operation of the flood control works reduced maximum stages by 2.6 feet at Arkadelphia and 1.5 feet at Camden. Major flooding of long duration occurred almost everywhere in the Yazoo Basin. Maximum stages were 5.6 feet above flood stage at Swan Lake, 3.4 feet above flood stage at Greenwood, and 7.1 feet above flood stage at Yazoo City. Operation of the flood control works reduced stages an average of about 2.1 feet on the Coldwater River, 3.9 feet on the Tallahatchie River, 5.5 feet at Greenwood, and 1.9 feet at Yazoo City. The Big Black River crested approximately 11.5 feet above flood stage during March 1973. New Orleans District-On the Mississippi River, the Red River Landing gage (flood stage 45 feet) recorded 54.7 feet on May 13, 14, and 15, 1973, and New Orleans (Carrollton, flood stage 17 feet) crested April 7, 1973, at a stage of 18.5 feet. Simmesport gage (flood stage 41 feet) at head of Atchafalaya Basin recorded a maximum of 49.1 feet on May 15, 1973. The Red River at Alexandria (flood stage 32 feet) recorded 35.8 feet on May 7 and 8, 1973. Surveys and reports prescribed under existing project, and called for by congressional or departmental directives, were made as required. Memphis District expended $57,060 on one navigation study, $296,103 on seven flood control studies, and $41,038 on collection and study of basic data. Vicksburg District expended $136,527 on four flood control studies, and $80,878 on collection and study of basic data. New Orleans District expended $176,920 on two flood control studies and $15,- 097 on one navigation study. Surveys were made and gages operated and maintained. In addition, $426,434 was expended on the West Texas and Eastern New Mexico Water Import Study to determine the advisability of improvements for exporting, by the most feasible means, surplus water, if any, in the Mississippi River system to water-deficient areas. This investigation is being made in cooperation with the Bureau of Reclamation in its current reconnaissance studies of measures for importing water into west Texas and eastern New Mexico. The Southwestern Division, Corps of Engineers, has made studies for that portion of the area within its boundaries. MISSISSIPPI RIVER-LEVEES Operations and results during fiscal year. Enlargement of dikes and restoration of eroded portions of existing levees; enlargement of existing levees to approved grade and section, 7.9 miles in New Orleans District; construction of levee berms, 6.0 miles in Vicksburg District and 0.9 mile in Memphis District, which includes 0.3 mile of existing berm enlargement. Restoration of damaged wavewash and foreshore protection 42-4 MISSISSIPPI RIVER COMMISSION was accomplished as required. For further details see Tables 42-K, 42-L, and 42-M. Condition at end of fiscal year. There are 1,- 599 miles of levee now authorized for the Mississippi River below Cape Girardeau, of which 1,- 568 are in place with 1,191 built to approved grade and section. The Main Stem Levee System consisting of 2,196 miles, of which 1,522 have been completed, includes additional levees and structures along the south bank of Arkansas River (85.4 miles); along the south bank of Red River (59.8 miles, with 41.3 completed); and 451.2 miles in the Atchafalava River Basin, with 233.8 essentially completed (203.8 to grade and section and 30.0 to grade only). Graveled or hard-surfaced roads have been constructed on 1,362 miles of these levees. (Tables 42-K, 42-L, and 42-M.) Below Baton Rouge, in New Orleans District, about 133 miles of levee are protected against river wavewash by timber structures or levee-slope pavement. In order to insure adequacy of main stem levees, including those on south banks of Arkansas and Red Rivers, additional levee construction is recommended to provide a standard 3-foot freeboard, adequate levee cross section, construction of berms for levee stabilization and seepage control, levee wavewash protection where necessary, drainage structures, and roadways for proper inspection and maintenance. Status of levees authorized under provisions of Section 6, 1928 act is summarized in Table 42-N. MISSISSIPPI RIVER-CHANNEL IMPROVEMENTS Operations and results during fiscal year. Engineering studies: Continued a research program for development of materials and more effective and economical procedures for placing and stabilizing Mississippi River in a suitable alinement. Bank revetment and dikes: Construction of 16.1 miles of new bank revetment and 2.5 miles of reinforcement of existing revetment along the Mississippi River was completed by Government plant and hired labor, and construction of 6.1 miles of new dikes was completed by contract. Approximately 1.4 miles of new foreshore protection were placed under contract at Port Allen, La., mile 231. Further data concerning this work are shown by Districts in Tables 42-H, 42-I, and 42-J. Dredging: Work included dredging 42,975,000 cubic yards for channel and harbor maintenance and channel construction and revetment. Minimum channel depth of 9 feet was maintained. Dredging shown in Table 42-G was done with the following plant: New Orleans District, one contract cutterhead dredge and one Government- owned dustpan dredge (on loan); Vicksburg District, one Government-owned dustpan dredge, two Government-owned dustpan dredges (on loan), and one leased cutterhead dredge; and Memphis District, three Government-owned dustpan dredges and one leased cutterhead dredge. (See also Tables 42-0, 42-P, and 42-Q.) Other work performed in the interest of navigation, supplementing maintenance dredging on Mississippi River between Cairo, Ill., and Baton Rouge, La., included removal of snags, wrecks, and obstructions; issuance of bulletins by the Vicksburg District providing information on available high-water velocities at selected locations; maintaining bulletin boards showing daily gage readings at regular MRC gages; and contact pilot service furnishing navigation interests with latest information and advice on channel conditions and obtaining their views as to needs of navigation interests. Cost of this work is given in Table 42-R. Condition at end of fiscal year. In carrying out authorized channel improvement program between Baton Rouge and Cairo, 16 cutoffs were developed between 1933 and 1942. These, combined with chute channel development and alinement improvements, decreased channel length between these cities by about 170 miles. However, current velocities increased the attack on the banks and the river began to regain its length. As a result, the net shortening between 1933 and 1962 was 114 miles of the theoretical 170-mile cutoff. There are now in place 658.8 miles of operative bank revetment and 139.7 miles of dikes on the Mississippi and lower Ohio Rivers as listed on Tables 42-H, 42-I, and 42-J. This amount of channel stabilization should prevent the river from regaining much more of its length due to meandering. A navigation channel 9 by 300 feet is being accomplished by revetment and dikes and maintained by dredging as required during the low-water season. Due to growing effectiveness of channel improvement program, average maintenance dredging requirements are steadily being reduced, and an increase in navigable depth is being obtained. Approximately 94 miles of foreshore protection have been constructed along the lower Mississippi River. NEW ORLEANS DISTRICT ATCHAFALAYA BASIN, LA. Operations and results during fiscal year. New work by hired labor: Real estate activities and planning for construction were continued. 42-5 REPORT OF THE CHIEF OF ENGINEERS, U.S. ARMY 1973 Bank stabilization consisted of placing 5.3 miles of articulated concrete mattress between miles 3 and 33 at Coville Bayou, Mercier, Morris Bayou, Melville, and Melville South, La., on the Atchafalaya River. New work by contract: Construction of floodside and landside berms and levee enlargement continued on the east and west protection levees. In completing five contracts initiated in prior fiscal years, 496,032 cubic yards of levee embankment were placed in the east protection levee over a distance of 4.9 miles and 62,430 cubic yards in the west protection levee over a distance of 0.9 mile this fiscal year. An additional 10.9 miles of levee enlargement and landside and floodside berms are under construction on the west protection levee and 2.1 miles on the east protection levee involving placement of 291,003 cubic yards during the fiscal year. Maintenance by hired labor: Bayou Boeuf, Berwick, and Bayou Sorrel Locks, Morganza Control Structure, and the numerous drainage and flood control structures were operated and maintained. The east bank Atchafalaya River levee from Prader to East Krotz Springs, La., was enlarged and shaped during the fiscal year. Maintenance of landside drainage in the west protection levee borrow pit and maintenance of existing revetments were performed. Maintenance by contract: Construction of timber fenders at Bayou Sorrel Lock was initiated on August 28, 1972, and completed on January 2, 1973. A chain-link security fence was constructed at Bayou Sorrel Lock between August 9 and September 26, 1972. Replacement of Charenton Beach Road timber tide gates on the west protection levee was accomplished between October 6 and December 4, 1972. Dredging at Three Rivers consisted of removal of 119,973 cubic yards of shoal between July 13 and 27, 1972. In restoration of the channel in Berwick Bay and Morgan City Harbors, initiated by leased dredge in the previous fiscal year and completed August 12, 1972, 491,133 cubic yards were removed. During maintenance dredging in the East and West Access Channels between July 25 and November 3, 1972, approximately 732,- 101 cubic yards of shoal were removed. Condition at end of fiscal year. Construction was initiated August 7, 1929, with the commencement of the west protection levee from Bordelonville to Hamburg, Louisiana. The project is 30 percent complete, based on the current estimated cost of $661,000,000 which includes funds for Upper Pointe Coupee Loop Area. Of the 451.2 miles of levees and floodwalls authorized for the Atchafalaya system, 233.8 are essentially complete with 203.8 miles built to grade and section and 30 miles to grade only. See Table 42-K for status of levees. The 1973 flooding on the Mississippi and tributaries necessitated the operation of the Morganza Floodway-the first time it was put in operation since its construction. Repairs to the scour and erosion of the tailbay and forebay levees are in the planning stage. Major components completed include Morganza amd West Atchafalaya Floodways including railroads and highway crossing (except permanent paving of U. S. Highway 190 crossing the West Floodway), Wax Lake Outlet, Charenton drainage canal, three navigation locks, ten pumping plants, Atchafalaya River navigation channel, and numerous flood control and drainage structures. Major items remaining to be completed include completion of levees to grade and section, channel improvement by dredging to reduce flowline, and bank stabilization. The channel has been enlarged to 60,000 square feet from mile 54.5 to 96.2, and to 40,000 square feet from mile 96.2 to 112.3. Enlargement to 100,000 square feet from mile 54.5 to 112.3 remains to be done. Drainage improvements in Upper Pointe Coupee Loop Area have not been initiated. Approximately 19.7 miles of bank stabilization have been placed as shown in Table 42-H. BATON ROUGE HARBOR (DEVILS SWAMP), LA. Operations and results during fiscal year. Maintenance by hired labor consisted of dredging, to remove shoal, by Government-owned dredge on loan from the Vicksburg District.

Principal items completed are as follows: Low-sill structure June 1959; overbank structure October 1959; levees and levee enlargements October 1963; inflow and outflow channels February 1961; navigation lock completed December 1962 and opened to navigation March 1963, at which time Old River was closed to navigation with a rock and earthfill dam; highway approaches and bridge over lock completed March 1965. Approximately 4.6 miles of bank protection have been constructed at the inflow and outflow channels. (See Table 42-H for details of bank protection.) During the course of this year's flood-fight emergency, while personnel were observing the operation of the low-sill structure on the evening of April 13, 1973, the end portion of the southeast wingwall was broken off due to high velocity flows and eddy current forces. On the morning of April 14, 1973, the entire portion of the wingwall extending from the main structure had collapsed into the river. Emergency operations were immediately begun to remedy the amage. Principal items remaining to complete the project consist of constructing additional bank protection works, providing additional scour protection in the inflow and outflow channels, an additional gantry crane for the low-sill structure, and construction for the prevention of marine accidents at the low-sill structure. 42-7 REPORT OF THE CHIEF OF ENGINEERS, U.S. ARMY 1973 VICKSBURG DISTRICT TENSAS BASIN, LA.

The U. S. Army Coastal Engineering Research Center was established under authority of Public Law 172, 88th Congress, which abolished the former Beach Erosion Board (organized under authority of sec. 2, 1930 River and Harbor Act, as amended (33 USC 426)), and directed that its .functions other than the review of reports of investigations made concerning erosion and protection of shores of coastal and lake waters, be vested with the Coastal Eng ineering Research Center. The report review function was transferred to the Board of Engineers for Rivers and Harbors, putting reports on beach erosion control and shore protection studies under the same review procedures as reports in other phases of the water resources study program of the Corps. The authorizing act also provided that the functions of the Coastal Engineering Research Center be conducted with the guidance and advice of a Coastal Engineering Research Board, to be constituted by the Chief of Engineers in the same manner as the former Beach Erosion Board. During fiscal year 1973 the following served as members of the Coastal Engineering Research Board: Major General John W. Morris, U. S. Army, Director of Civil Works, Office Chief of Engineers, President; Major General Daniel A. Raymond, U. S. Army, Division Engineer, South Atlantic Division; Major General Ernest Graves, Division Engineer, North Central Division; Brigadier General George B. Fink, U. S. Army, Division Engineer, South Pacific Division; Dean Morrough P. O'Brien, Dean Emeritus, College of Engineering, University of California at Berkeley; Dr. Arthur T. Ippen, Institute Professor, Massachusetts Institute of Technology; and Dr. Robert G. Dean, Chairman, Department of Coastal and Oceanographic Engineering, University of Florida. Lieutenant Colonel Don S. McCoy was Executive Secretary to the Board and Director of the Center until May 31, 1973. On June 1 he was replaced by Colonel James L. Trayers. The Coastal Engineering Research Center is the principal research and development facility of the Corps in the field of coasta engineering. The mission of the Center is to: a. Conceive, plan and conduct research and development in the field of coastal engineering, in order to provide a better understanding of coastal processes, winds, waves, tides, current, and materials as they apply to navigation, recreation, flood and storm protection, shore and beach erosion control, shore structures, and offshore islands and structures; b. Conceive, plan and conduct research on the effects of the coastal activities of the Corps of Engineers on the ecology of the coastal zone; c. Collect and publish information and data concerning coastal phenomena and research projects which are useful to the Corps of Engineers and to the public; d. Assist in the planning and design of coastal works, including: determination of probable effects of such works on adjacent shores, establishment of hurricane protection criteria, and evaluation of the stability, durability and effectiveness of proposed ng. When flood loss reduction was seen as the only reason for public action, the logical result was reactive. Build works to keep the floods from reaching vulnerable properties. This was Congress's charge to us in 1936. Later came the realization that the measures taken to reduce losses could be used for other purposes and for not only present conditions but for future conditions. We discovered on the one hand that we could create land enhancement, and on the other hand, we recognized that certain useful purposes in addition to flood control, such as water supply, power and the like could be added to development or project. At about the same time, we realized that the construction of works in whatever form had some general, adverse impacts on the stream and its environs. These adverse impacts were found in degrada- tion of water quality, in the destruction of fish game habitat, and in the matter of environmental esthetics. (This is not to say that some coastal navigation improvements and other coastal works; e. Assist in the review, for technical adequacy, of studies, plans, and specifications for beach erosion control and other coastal engineering works; f. Provide specialized consulting services to other elements of the Corps of Engineers and, as directed, to other Federal agencies; g. Provide specialized training in coastal engineering to other public agencies. Operations and results during fiscal year. The staff of Coastal Engineering Research Center reviewed 21 reports for technical adequacy, of which 6 concerned navigation projects, 11 concerned beach erosion control projects, 2 con- 43-1 REPORT OF THE CHIEF OF ENGINEERS, U.S. ARMY 1973 cerned a combined beach erosion-hurricane protection project, and 2 concerned combined beach erosion control-navigation projects. In keeping with the responsibility for publishing information and data concerning coastal phenomena, a number of technical reports by staff members were published by CERC or in other technical journals during the year and others are currently being edited. Two Technical Memoranda were issued by the Coastal Engineering Research Center and 4 are in preparation to go to press. Three technical manuscripts were published in the "Miscellaneous Papers" series and four are currently being edited. Twenty-two technical papers by CERC staff published elsewhere in the technical press were issued as CERC Reprints. The Center's major compendium on shore protection (Technical Report No. 4 "Shore Protection Planning and Design") is again out of print. A completely revised and updated edition of this report, entitled "Shore Protection Manual," is nearing completion. Work was also underway on preparation of a broader scope compendium entitled "Coastal Engineering Manual." The staff worked on several major research or engineering projects for various agencies and prepared reports thereon. A number of lesser studies were also made and reported on. A training course in coastal engineering was given to a group of trainees from the Board of Engineers for Rivers and Harbors; lectures were given by staff members to universities and to technical and non-technical groups. Members of the staff participated in a number of committees of various technical societies. A staff member served on the Permanent International Commission of the Permanent International Association of Navigation Congresses, and another member served on the Federal Committee on Wood Protection, under the sponsorship of the National Academy of Science. Contract research to supplement staff activities was carried out at universities and with institutions and commercial concerns under approximately 71 contracts; funds were supplied other Corps offices for data collection; an funds were also provided to the Waterways Experiment Station to assist in carrying out a laboratory portion of the generalized tidal inlet study and to continue work on mathematical modelling of harbor surging and on the study of underwater soil mechanics. At the end of the year work and studies by the staff were in progress in such areas as characteristics of ocean waves as determined by actual measurement at a number of field locations; characteristics of coastal inlets; analysis of wave spectra; sources of sand for use as beach fill; durability of various pile coatings in the surf zone; relation of longshore transport to incident waves; techniques for measuring longshore transport; wave direction measurements; effectiveness of vegetation for dune stabilization; coastal siltation problems peculiar to the Alaskan environment; use of remote sensing in coastal studies; geomorphology of the Atlantic coastal zone; ecological effects of offshore dredging; correlation of wave climate and beach deformation; wave refraction, and effects on design waves; study of effect of offshore islands; use of the middle ground shoal area as a deposition trap in sand bypassing; evaluation of completed coastal works; and others. Research work at the Coastal Engineering Research Center, or being done at other institutions for the Center, was financed primarily by Coastal Engineering Research and Development Funds, General Expense Funds and Engineering Studies Funds. For FY 1973 appropriated and allotted funds in these three categories amounted to $3,970,000, $310,000 and $104,000, respectively. Reimbursable work done for others provided another $163,400. 43-2 CALIFORNIA DEBRIS COMMISSION* This Commission, consisting of three Corps officers appointed by the President with the consent of the Senate, created by act of March 1, 1893 (27 Stat. L., p. 507), was organized in San Francisco, Calif., on June 8, 1893, and has jurisdiction and duties extending over drainage area of Sacramento and San Joaquin Rivers, comprising great central valle of California and extending from crest of Sierra Nevada on the east to that of Coast Range on the west, and from Mount Shasta and Pit River Basin on the north to Tehachapi Mountains on the south. These rivers empty into head of Suisun Bay ultimately discharging into Pacific Ocean through connecting bays and straits and the Golden Gate. Duties of the Commission comprise regulation of hydraulic mining in drainage area of Sacramento and San Joaquin Rivers, Calif., so that debris will not be carried into navigable waters or otherwise cause damage; jurisdiction over construction and control of water storage facilities for domestic, irrigation, and power development purposes; and direction of improvements for control of floods on Sacramento River.

Operations largely limited to territory between Mount Lassen on the north and Yosemite Valley on the south, on western watershed of Sierra Nevada. (See Geological Survey sheets for the area, 25 in number.) Existing project. Provides for regulating hydraulic mining operations, planning improvement of conditions upon Sacramento and San Joaquin Rivers and their tributaries affected by such operations, and preparation of plans to enable hydraulic mining to be resumed in their drainage areas. In addition, the Secretary of Army is authorized to enter into contracts to supply storage for water and use of outlet facilities from debris-storage reservoirs for domestic and irrigation purposes and power development, upon such conditions of delivery, use, and payment as he may approve. Applications of prospective miners are fully investigated by California Debris Commission and permits to operate are issued to those who provide satisfactory debris- restraining basins by construction of suitable dams where necessary or agree to make payment * All cost and financial statements for projects are listed at the end of this chapter. All other tables are referenced in text and also appear at the end of this chapter. 44-1 REPORT OF THE CHIEF OF ENGINEERS, U.S. ARMY 1973 for storage in Government-constructed, debris- restraining reservoirs constructed under act of June 19, 1934, as set forth below. For location and description of Government-constructed, debris- restraining reservoirs for general hydraulic mining see Improvement 2. (See table 44-B for authorizing legislation.) Local cooperation. Mineowners must bear all expenses incurred in complying with orders of the Commission for regulation of mining and restraint of debris. Operations and results during fiscal year. Inspected hydraulic mines to determine compliances of mineowners with requirements of license issued. Administrative work overlaps that of improvements 2, 3, and 4, hereunder, and that of Sacramento District. Condition at end of fiscal year. The Commission received 1,292 applications for hydraulic mining licenses; I mine is licensed, but does not use storage behind Government debris dams. Work remaining is, in general, continuation of above or similar operations. 2. SACRAMENTO RIVER AND TRIBUTARIES, CALIF. (DEBRIS CONTROL) Location. Project reservoirs are to be constructed in watersheds of Yuba, Bear, and American Rivers, Calif. (See Geological Survey sheets foi basin areas, seven in number.) Existing project. Designed to permit resumption of hydraulic mining on a substantial scale and provides for construction of reservoirs for purpose of retaining mining debris. North Fork project is on North Fork of American River about 5 miles northeast of city of Auburn and 40 miles northeast of Sacramento. Dam is 155 feet high, 620 feet long, and reservoir has debris storage capacity of 26 million cubic yards. Harry L. Englebright project is on Yuba River about 20 miles northeast of city of Marysville. Dam is 280 feet high, 1,142 feet long, and reservoir has a debris storage capacity of 118 million cubic yards. Completed reservoirs are also utilized for recreation purposes; initial facilities were provided in fiscal year 1959. Recreation areas at Harry L. Englebright Dam are maintained by the Corps. Recreation areas at North Fork Darn are maintained and operated by Auburn Recreation Park and Parkway District. Total Federal cost of new work for construction of these reservoirs was $4,646,872, including $40,000 for recreation facilities. Cost of recreation areas at North Fork Dam was $57,500. It is estimated (July 1973) that improvements to recreation areas will cost $343,000 for Harry L. Englebright Dam. Reservoir project sites on Middle Fork of American River and on Bear River are considered inactive and excluded from foregoing cost estimate. Estimated cost of this portion is $1,820,050 (1935). Existing project was adopted by Ri,':r and Harbor Act of 1935 (Rivers and Harb, �s Committee Doc. 50, 74th Cong., 1st sess.). For latest published map, see project document. Act of November 6, 1945, provided that dam co,- structed at Upper Narrows site on Yuba Rivcr, Calif., should thereafter be Harry L. Englebright Dam. Local cooperation. Satisfactory assurances wee furnished the Secretary of the Army for repityment of capital cost of reservoir from taxes "In material hydraulically mined, under licenses, and impounded in these reservoirs. Improveme;ts made to facilities at North Fork Dam by Aubiun Recreation Park and Parkway District under a lease agreement with the Secretary of the Aray and Auburn Boat Clubs (concessionaire) at an estimated cost of $46,000 since September 1953. Licenses. Under provisions of Contract N. W-1105-eng-2998 with Pacific Gas and Elect,, Co., payment is to be made to the Federal Goernment of $18,000 per year for the first .30 years (December 29, 1942 through December 28, 1972) and $48,000 per year between December 29, 1972, and December 28, 1992, in return for use of head at Englebright Dam and generation of hydroelectric power. Total payment through June 30, 1973, amounts to $540,100; these funds are paid to California Debris Commission and deposited for return to the Treasury. License No. 2246, effective April 9, 1970 (date New Narrows powerplant put in operation) was issued by Federal Power Commission to Yuba County Water Agency for hydroelectric power development of Yuba River by the company upstream from Englebright Dam. Under provisions of Contract No. DA-04-167-CIVENG-66-95 with Yuba County Water Agency, payment is to be made to the Federal Government of $100,000 per year for no more than 50 years. First payment (partial) of $73,151 was made April 1, 1971; total payment through June 30, 1973, amounts to $273,151. These funds are paid to Sacramento District and deposited for return to the Treasury. Operations and results during fiscal year. Maintenance and operation activities continued at North Fork Dam at a cost of $21,689; and at Harry L. Englebright Dam at a cost of $92,613. including recreation facilities ($51,665). Condition at end of fiscal year. Construction of dams was initiated in 1937; North Fork project was completed and in use at end of fiscal year 1939; and Harry L. Englebright project was completed in January 1941. The two debris- control structures are in good condition. 44-2 CALIFORNIA DEBRIS COMMISSION Public use of these reservoir recreation areas greatly overtaxes present capacities. 3. TREATMENT OF YUBA RIVER DEBRIS SITUATIONRESTRAINING BARRIERS, CALIF. Location. Works are on Yuba River between Marysville and where the river emerges from the foothills, near Hammonton, some 10 miles easterly from Marysville, or about 9 miles below the Narrows. (See Geological Survey Topographic map of Sacramento Valley, Calif.) Existing project. Provides for storage of mining debris within riverbed of Yuba River, a nonnavigable stream, to keep such debris from passming into Feather and Sacramento Rivers to detriment of navigation therein. Improvement consists of a debris barrier, a 40-foot wide reinforced concrete stepped slab with upstream and downstream cutoff walls; training walls 85,100 feet long which provide a 600-foot wide channel above and a 500-foot wide channel below dam; dikes across overflow channels; and protective works downstream to maintain Yuba River in its confined channel to its junction with Feather River at Marysville. Total cost of new work was $723,259, of which $361,482 was U.S. funds and $361,777 required contributed funds by State of California. (For details of project in its original form, see Annual Report, 1917, p. 1810.) In February 1963, center section of dam failed and major rehabilitation of structure was completed minD ecember 1964. Total cost for required rehabilitation was $1,660,000, of which $830,000 was Federal cost and $830,000 required contribution by State of California toward rehabilitation cost. During the December 24, 1964, floodflows on the Yuba River, the rehabilitated Daguerre Point Dam sustained considerable damage. (See 1965 Annual Report, p. 1647 "Operations and results during fiscal year.") The reconstructed portion of the dam completed earlier in December 1964 was undamaged by the flood. Permanent repair of Daguerre Point Dam abutment and fish facilities was completed in October 1965 at a cost of $447,808 with Federal and required State contributed funds on a matching basis. Existing project was adopted in a rather indefinite form by River and Harbor Act of 1896 and in its more definite form by River and Harbor Act of 1902 (H. Doc. 431, 56th Cong., 1st sess.). (For latest published map, see Geological Survey topograph- Ic map of Sacramento Valley, Calif.) Local cooperation. Fully complied with for new work and major rehabilitation work. Total first cost to local interests for new work was $361,777, all of which was required contribution by State of California. In addition, training walls were built on each bank below Daguerre Point for 11,250 feet and just above Daguerre Point, on the south bank, for 11,000 linear feet by two gold-dredging companies in connection with their dredging operations. It was estimated (1902) that it would have cost the United States $450,000 to build these training walls. Flood channels were also built by gold-dredging companies within the confines of the project works. It was estimated (1926) that cost of equally effective works to restrain debris movement would have been more than $776,000 to the United States. Total costs to local interests for initial and permanent major rehabilitation works were $830,000 and $223,- 904, respectively, all of which was required contribution by State of California. State of California must contribute annually an amount equal to the Federal allotment for maintenance. Operations and results during fiscal year. Maintenance: Operations included condition and operation studies by hired labor. Condition at end of fiscal year. Construction of project works was initiated in November 1902. Construction of Daguerre Point Dam was completed in May 1906; diversion of river over dam was completed in 1910; training walls and dikes were completed in 1935. About 140 million cubic yards of debris are held in lower 7 miles of Yuba River between Marysville and downstream end of training walls. About 20 million cubic yards are confined in river channel by Daguerre Point Dam. Additional millions of yards of loose material are in mine tailing fields adjacent to project training walls in upper 7-mile reach of project. Initial rehabilitation of Daguerre Point Dam begun in July 1963 was completed in December 1964. Contract for permanent rehabilitation of structure was initiated in July and completed in October 1965. Flood Control 4. SACRAMENTO RIVER, CALIF. Location. Works covered by this improvement are on Sacramento River and tributaries in north-central California from Collinsville to Ord Bend, a distance of 184 miles. Previous project. For details see page 1815 of Annual Report for 1917, page 1995 of Annual Report for 1938, and page 2262 of Annual Report for 1907. Existing project. Sacramento River flood control project is a comprehensive plan of flood control for Sacramento River and lower reaches of its principal tributaries. Improvement extends along Sacramento River from Ord Bend in Glenn County, Calif., 184 miles downstream to 44-3 REPORT OF THE CHIEF OF ENGINEERS, U.S. ARMY 1973 its mouth at Collinsville at upper end of Suisun Bay, and comprises a system of levees, overflow weirs, drainage pumping plants, and flood bypass channels or floodways designed to carry surplus floodwaters without inundation of valley lands. About 980 miles of levee construction with an average height of 15 feet, and 98 miles of bank protection are involved in project. For further details, see Annual Report for 1962, page 2115. (See table 44-B for authorizing legislation.) Estimated (July 1973) cost for existing project (exclusive of above supplemental levee improvements), including new work and maintenance, is $163,640,000 of which $68,640,000 is Federal cost and $95 million non-Federal ($90,050,562 for lands and damages and relocations and $4,- 949,438 required contributed funds for levee construction, bank protection works, and levee setbacks). Of this amount $4,939,752 was for new work and $9,686 for maintenance. In addition to project requirements, local interests constructed several pumping plants for drainage of agricultural and urban land protected by project levees. Also, some channel clearing work was accomplished by State of California and other local interests to supplement project levee construction. Dredging below Cache Slough and reconstruction of Cache Creek settling basin weir are considered deferred and excluded from foregoing cost estimate. Estimated cost (July 1962) of these project units is $2,560,000 and $520,000, respectively, a total of $3,080,000, plus U.S. costs, for construction. Operation and maintenance of completed project will be responsibility of local interests; as units of project are completed, they are transferred to agencies of State of California for operation and maintenance. Existing project was adopted by 1917 Flood Control Act (H. Doc. 81, 62d Cong., 1st sess., as modified by Rivers and Harbors Committee Doc. 5, 63d Cong., 1st sess.), 1928 Flood Control Act (S. Doc. 23, 69th Cong., 1st sess.), River and Harbor Act of 1937 (S. Committee print 75th Cong., 1st sess.), and 1941 Flood Control Act (H. Doc. 205, 77th Cong., 1st sess.). Local cooperation. Local interests have fully complied with requirements for all work completed or under contract, and indicated they will be able to fulfill requirements for remaining work as scheduled. Local interests costs from required contributed funds for project work total $4,949,438 for levee construction, bank protection works, and levee setbacks, of which $4.- 939,752 was for new work and $9,686 for maintenance. Operations and results during fiscal ye: r. Regular funds: Engineering continued. Condition at end of fiscal year. Construction )f existing project began in fiscal year 1918 and is about 99 percent complete. Channel improvement to date has produced a channel with a capacity of 579,000 cubic feet per second in Sacramento River below Cache Slough. In addition, discharges up to 21,000 cubic feet per second can be diverted from Sacramento River through Georgiana Slough. Completed major project items include about 977 miles of levees; five weirs with a combined discharge capacity of 602,000 cubic feet per second; two cutoff channels; two sets of outfall gates; channel improv,- ment and clearing in Sacramento River, Bufe Creek, Putah Creek, and Sutter and Tisdale Bypasses; construction of two main bypasses or floodways and secondary bypasses at Tisdale and Sacramento weirs and at Wadsworth Canal; construction of Knights Landing ridge cut and of Cache Creek settling basin; installation of gaging stations; and enlargement of Sacramento River below Cache Slough. Cutoffs at Collins Eddy and between Wild Irishman and Kinneys Bends were made in 1918 and 1919, respectively. Sacramenio weir was completed in 1917, Fremont weir in 1924, Tisdale and Moulton weirs in 1932, and Colusa weir in 1933. Outfall gates at Knighs Landing were constructed in 1930 and at mouth of Butte Slough in 1936. Pumping plants on Sutter Bypass were completed in 1944. Work items with reference to clearing, snagging, rectification of channels, and bank protection on Sacramento River and tributaries in Tehama County and from Red Bluff southerly, provided for by 1941 Flood Control Act were accomplished in fiscal years 1947, 1948, 1949, and 1951. Work remaining comprises completion of levee stage construction, Yolo Bypass and Cache Slough. (See table 44-C for total cost of existing project to June 30, 1973.)

Waterways Experiment Station is a field operating agency of the Chief of Engineers operating under the staff supervision of the Director of Civil Works in accordance with General Orders No. 9, 1949. It was originally established as an hydraulic laboratory, 18 June 1929, under the President, Mississippi River Commission, by direction of the Chief of Engineers. Colonel G. H. Hilt, Corps of Engineers, is Director. The organization is the largest laboratory complex of the Corps of Engineers for research, testing and development. It is engaged in research and engineering investigations in the scientific fields of hydraulics, soil mechanics, concrete, expedient construction, nuclear and conventional weapons effects, nuclear and chemical explosives excavation, vehicle mobility, environmental relationships, engineering geology, rock mechanics, and pavements. On a reimbursable basis, Waterways Experiment Station performs basic and applied research in these and related fields, develops methods and techniques, tests materials and equipment, and provides consulting services in its specialized fields of competence. Such services include essential technical support in instrumentation development and scientific and engineering computer services. Subject to approval by the Chief of Engineers, studies and investigations may be undertaken for other agencies. The Waterways Experiment Station also maintains an extensive scientific and engineering reference library to serve specialized needs of the Corps of Engineers and issues publications of general interest (including translations) which can aid materially in eliminating duplication of effort throughout the Corps in the conduct of experimental studies; operates DOD Information Analysis Centers in the fields of Pavements and Soils Trafficability, Concrete Technology, Hydraulic Engineering, and Soil Mechanics; the Corps of Engineers' Engineering Computer Programs Library (including audio-visual training aids); the Corps of Engineers' motion picture lending library and the Corps' Guide Specifications service. During Fiscal Year 1973, 199 reports of individual studies conducted at the Waterways Experiment Station, 9 in-house translations and 9 translations produced commercially, 6 contract reports, and 44 miscellaneous publications for the Waterways Experiment Station and other offices were distributed to Corps offices and interested outside agencies. In addition, editing and printing units completed about 3,280 miscellaneous assignments for the Waterways Experiment Station and other offices. Operations and results during fiscal year. Work accomplished at the Waterways Experiment Station is, in general, initially financed by a revolving fund, reimbursement being obtained directly from agencies for whom work is performed. Cost for operation of Station for Fiscal Year 1973 was $32,192,266 of which $24,822,820 was charged to establishments served for research investigations and related services, and $3,769,446 for permanent improvements and equipment. Of the reimbursable work, $12,- 094,125 was charged to civil funds, $16,028,200 to military funds, and $300,495 to nongovernmental agencies. Work includes $2,352,617 performed by contract. Total cost incurred for operation of the Waterways Experiment Station to June 30, 1973 was $341,780,284 of which $321,141,919 represents reimbursable cost and $20,638,365 the unamortized cost of permanent improvements and equipment. 45-1 PERMANENT INTERNATIONAL ASSOCIATION OF NAVIGATION CONGRESSES The United States by act of June 28, 1902, appropriated $3,000 annually for support and maintenance of the Permanent International Commission of Navigation Congresses and for payment of the actual expenses of property accredited national delegates of the United States to meetings of the Congresses and Commission. An increase in the appropriation of $5,000 annually was authorized by 1948 River and Harbor Act. The 1965 River and Harbor Act authorized an appropriation of $22,000. Of this amount, $2,700 is paid by the American Section to the International Association in Brussels, Belgium. The objective of the Association-to promote the progress of inland and maritime navigation- is met by holding International Congresses and publishing technical bulletins and other documents. The Congresses are held in various member countries, usually at 4-year intervals. The Association is supported principally by member governments, but membership also extends to corporations and individuals. Member governments are represented at the Congresses and at meetings of the Permanent International Commission by delegates, the number of official delegates to be determined by the amount of the annual subsidy paid by the government, but not to exceed 10 in number. Corporate members may send one official representative to the Congresses. Individual membership is of two classes- Annual and Life, depending on the method of payment of dues. The affairs of the Association are managed by the Permanent International Commission composed of delegates from the supporting governments. The National Commission constitutes the governing body of the American Section and the U. S. members of the Permanent International Commission. The Director of Civil Works, Office of the Chief of Engineers, U. S. Army, and the Resident Member, Board of Engineers for Rivers and Harbors, are the ex-officio Chairman and Secretary, respectively, of the National Commission. The Secretary handles all administrative matters of the American Section. During Fiscal Year 1973, National Commissioners were: MG J. W. Morris, USA, ex-officio Chairman; COL John T. Rhett, CE, USA ex-officio Secretary until 28 February 1973 when he was replaced by COL Carl H. Bronn, USA (Ret.); RADM Roderick Y. Edwards, USCG (Ret.); Mr. Minard I. Foster; Mr. Mark S. Gurnee until his resignation 31 December 1972 when he was replaced by Honorable David W. Oberlin; Mr. J. W. Hershey; Mr. Duane Orr; and Mr. Thorndike Saville. Membership of the American Section on 30 June 1973 totaled 662, consisting of 600 individuals and 62 corporate members. Two new individual members, 1 life member, and 1 corporate member were added during the fiscal year, and 24 individual members and 2 corporate members deleted either through resignations, death, or non-payment of dues. Federal funds from annual appropriations were estimated at $10,000, which included $2,- 700 for annual U.S. contribution to the association, $5,700 for expenses of representative to meetings and $1,600 for miscellaneous expenditures. 46-1 INVESTIGATIONS AND SUPERVISION OF PROJECTS UNDER FEDERAL WATER POWER ACT The Federal Water Power Act of June 10, 1920, created the Federal Power Commission, composed of the Secretaries of War, Interior, and Agriculture, with authority to grant permits and licenses for hydroelectric development in all waters over which Congress has jurisdiction. The act further required that work of the Commission be performed by and through the Departments of War, Interior, and Agriculture, and their engineering, technical, and other personnel, except as may be otherwise provided by law. By an act of June 23, 1930, entitled "An Act to reorganize the Federal Power Commission," sections 1 and 2 of the Federal Water Power Act of 1920 were amended. A commission was provided for, to be composed of five commissioners to be appointed by the President, by and with the advice and consent of the Senate. The necessity of performing work through the Departments of War, Interior, and Agriculture was removed and the Commission authorized to appoint such officers and employees as necessary in executing its function. By title II, Public Utility Act of 1935, the original Federal Water Power Act was made Part I of the Federal Power Act, and parts II and III added to that act. The law also provides that no waterpower license affecting navigable capacity of any navigable waters of the United States shall be issued until plans of the dam or other structures affecting navigation have been approved by the Chief of Engineers and the Secretary of the Army. There is further provision whereby any person or corporation intending to construct hydroelectric project works in or along any stream over which Congress has jurisdiction, other than navigable waters, shall file a declaration of intention for the purpose of ascertaining whether or not jurisdiction of the Federal Power Commission will attach. The following work of an engineering nature was assigned and accomplished during the fiscal year: 4 plans approved by Chief of Engineers and Secretary of the Army in accordance with sec. 4(3) of the Federal Water Power Act; 61 reports submitted on applications for preliminary permits or licenses or amendments thereto and reports on licensed projects subject to recapture (including environmental statements); and supervision of 7 licensed projects for the Commission. Necessary expenses in excess of nominal amounts for transportation and subsistance of personnel engaged in investigations and cost of supervision under provisions of the Federal Power Act are paid from appropriations made for the Federal Power Commission. All other costs of administration of laws in question are paid from funds available for general expense of the Corps of Engineers. No expenses were paid from appropriations made for the Federal Power Commission during the fiscal year. 47 -i MISCELLANEOUS CIVIL WORKS TABLE OF CONTENTS Page 1.

INTERNATIONAL BOUNDARY WATERS BOARDS. In order to carry out United States obligations under international agreements, the Office, Chief of Engineers and several Divisions and Districts of the Corps with jurisdiction over areas bordering Canada, have representation on numerous Boards and Committees. The majority of these boards are established by the International Joint Commission (IJC) as empowered in accordance with the provisions of the Boundary Waters Treaty of 1909 between the United States and Great Britain (Canada). IJC boards fall into two broad categories; boards of control, which are more or less permanent; and engineering or technical boards, which are usually dissolved after completing their assignment. In addition to boards created by the Commission, other boards and committees are created by treaties or other informal arrangement in matters concerned with the water resources, and the members report directly to the Government or establishing agency. A listing of these international boards having Corps of Engineers membership during the fiscal year follow: 2A. THE INTERNATIONAL ST. CROIX RIVER BOARD OF CONTROL Constitution and duties. The Board was organized pursuant to conditions in the Orders of the International Joint Commission approving the maintenance and operation of the dam built by the St. Croix Water Power Co. and the Sprague Falls Manufacturing Co., Ltd., across the St. Croix River at Grand Falls, Maine, and subsequent agreements reached between the Governments of the United States and Canada. The Board is charged with the duty of formulating and administering rules under which the power plant and accessories are to be operated to prevent as nearly as possible a level of water at the dam higher than 203.5 feet (mean sea level datum), and to secure for the users of water below Grand Falls the flow of water to which they are entitled. The Board is also charged with the supervision of the operation of all fishways on that portion of the St. Croix River that forms the international boundary. On October 2, 1934, the Commission issued an Order approving the reconstruction of the dam by the Canadians Cottons, Ltd., extending across the St. Croix River from Milltown, New Brunswick, Canada, to Milltown, Maine that contained the following conditions: (a) the reconstructed dam to be operated to insure that the forebay levels rise to no higher elevation than that which was obtained in the operation of the dam being replaced; (f) during floods the sluiceways of the dam shall be sufficiently open to insure passage of the ri'-r flow; and (c) the operation of the dam, insofar :s is necessary to insure the observance of the prcie isions of the Order, be under the supervision . the Board. On November 19, 1965, the Commi sion directed the board, in addition to the duti.s previously assigned, to carry out the duties co:ntained in the Order dated October 15, 1965, ft. the construction of the storage dam at Vanceboro and to report to the Commission annually. Members of the Board for fiscal year. Color:[ F. P. Bane, Division Engineer, U. S. Army Endineer Division, New England, Waltham, Masschusetts, was United States member until August 1, 1972 and Colonel J. H. Mason, same ofie thereafter, and Mr. J. E. Peters, District Engineer, Water Survey of Canada, Department of the Environment, Halifax, Nova Scotia, was the Canadian member. Operations during fiscal year. Supervision was maintained and inspection was made by the Board members and their representatives to in sure that the Orders of the Commission were followed. The Board performed the annual inspection ai the St. Croix River Basin in the period June 25 27, 1973 meeting with officers of the New Brun wick Electric Power Commission at Milltown New Brunswick, and the Georgia-Pacific Corp( ration in Woodland, Maine. The Board submitted a Plan of Study in Au gust 1972 for the Water Resources System Operation investigation. The Commision approved a revised Plan of Study, dated November, 1972. This study will consider re-regulation of the complex of storage reservoirs operated by Geor gia-Pacific Corporation with particular attention given to moderating the allowable drawdown levels specified for Spednic Lake and its control structure, Vanceboro Dam. Preliminary studies have been completed by both Sections of the Board and the final report is scheduled in 1974. The 1973 spring run-off generated flows of near record proportions without major incident Routine inspections were made by field staff members to verify the accuracy of all flow and level data regularly submitted by the reporting agencies during the year. 2B. INTERNATIONAL LAKE MEMPHREMAGOG BOARD Constitution and duties. Lake Memphremagog is in northern Vermont and southeastern Quebec and has as its outlet Magog River in Canada. In 48-2 MISCELLANEOUS CIVIL WORKS 1920 the city of Newport and towns of Derby, Conventry, and Barton, Vt., alleged they had been harmed by lake levels attributable to construction and operation of power plants on the Magog River. As a result, the Board composed of one engineer each from the United States and Canada was appointed by the two Governments to consider the matter and submit a joint report to each Government as to the level or levels at which Lake Memphremagog should, so far as possible, be maintained. At the request of local interests consideration of the problem was susended until 1931 when a survey was made. ubsequently a joint report by the two members of the Board, dated May 14, 1934, was submitted to each Government. This report recommended that the lake levels under normal flow conditions range between an upper elevation of 682.70 feet above mean sea level (Geodetic Survey of Canada, 1923 adjustment), and a lower limit of 678.98 feet. During flood conditions, the sluiceways of the dam shall be so operated as to reduce the flood water elevations to the normal regulated level of 682.70 as rapidly as possible. The Board was reactivated by Governments on August 12, 1960 as a result of a complaint on July 20, 1959 by a resident of Newport, Vt., concerning high lake levels due to alleged improper operation of the power plant. Members of the Board for fiscal year. For Canada: Mr. J. D. McLeod, Senior Engineer, Inland Waters Directorate, Department of the Environment, until January 31, 1973 and Mr. W. K. Sharpe, Chief, Operations Management Division, Water Planning and Management Branch, Inland Waters Directorate, Department of the .'Environment thereafter, and for the United States: Colonel J. W. Barnett, New York District Engineer, Corps of Engineers, U. S. Army until July 6, 1972 and Colonel H. W. Lombard, same office, thereafter. Operations during fiscal year. Supervision of the levels was maintained. The Water Resources Branch of the U.S. Geological Survey records daily readings of the elevation of Lake Memphremagog at Newport, Vermont. Datum of the gage is 673.00 feet above mean sea level, U. S. Geological Survey 1929 adjustment, which is 0.30 feet higher than the comparable Geodetic Survey of Canada, 1923 adjustment. The upper limit of the recommended lake level was exceeded for almost the entire month of May and much of April and June. However, investigation of complaints received by the U.S. Army Corps of Engineers and the Vermont Department of Water Resources indicated that damages were confined to shoreline erosion and were not serious. 2C. INTERNATIONAL LAKE CHAMPLAIN BOARD OF CONTROL Constitution and duties. The Board was organized pursuant to the provision of the Order of Approval, dated June 10, 1937, of the International Joint Commission, approving construction and operation of certain remedial works in the Richelieu River at Fryers Island, Quebec. The Board submitted a report to the Commission dated May 4, 1938 soon after completion of the Fryers Island Dam. The Board is responsible for insuring compliance with provisions of the Order insofar as they relate to the regulation of the levels of Lake Champlain. Members of the Board for fiscal ygar. Mr. N. P. Persoage, Water Management Branch, Inland Waters Directorate, Department of the Environment, for Canada until February 1, 1973 and Mr. J. Bathurst, Chief Engineer, same office, thereafter, and Col. J. W. Barnett, District Engineer, U. S. Army Engineer District, New York, for the United States until July 6, 1972 and Col. H. W. Lombard thereafter. Operations during fiscal year. The widening of the existing Chambly Canal was continued and completed during the fiscal year. No work has been proposed for next year. Information and complaints have been received from numerous communities along Lake Champlain of flood damages caused by high lake levels during 1972 and 1973. Informal investigations indicated that high lake levels were presumably caused by heavy rainfall and the natural barriers in the channel of the Richelieu River for which the Canadian government is in no way responsible. Two meetings have been held by the Board to consider the phenomena of the increasingly high water levels of Lake Champlain. The States of New York and Vermont, as well as Canada and the Province of Quebec were represented at these meetings. The Governments o Canada and of the United States agreed by letter dated March 29, 1973 to request the Commission to investigate and report upon the feasibility and desirability of regulation of the Richelieu River in the Province of Quebec for the purpose of alleviating extreme water conditions in the Richelieu River and in Lake Champlain, and for other beneficial purposes. Pursuant to the Commission's decision on April 6, 1973, the International Richelieu-Champlain Engineering Board was established on April 24, 1973 to undertake the necessary investigations and studies and to advise the Commission on all matters which it must consider in making its reports to Governments under the Reference of March 29, 1973. 48-3 REPORT OF THE CHIEF OF ENGINEERS, U.S. ARMY 1973 2D. INTERNATIONAL RICHELIEU-CHAMPLAIN ENGINEERING BOARD Constitution and duties. The Governments of Canada and of the United States agreed by letter dated March 29, 1973, pursuant to Article IX of the Boundary Waters Treaty of 1909, to request the International Joint Commission to investigate and report upon the feasibility and desirability of regulation of the Richelieu River in the Province of Quebec for the purpose of alleviating extreme water conditions in the Richelieu River and in Lake Champlain, and for other beneficial purposes. Pursuant to the Commission's decision April 6, 1973, the Engineering Board was established on April 24, 1973 to undertake, through appropriate agencies in Canada and the United States, the necessary investigations and studies and to advise the Commission on all matters which it must consider in making its reports to Governments under the Reference of March 29, 1973. Members of the Board for fiscal year. The Canadian members were: Mr. H. B. Rosenberg, Department of the Environment, Chairman Canadian Section; Mr. E. Morin, Department of Indian and Northern Affairs; Mr. B. Harvey, Department of Natural Resources; and Mr. B. Vallee, Province of Quebec, Planning and Development Office. The U. S. members were: Colonel H. W. Lombard, District Engineer, U. S. Army Engineer District, New York, Chairman U. S. Section; Mr. J. A. Finck, Jr., New York State Department of Environmental Conservation; Mr. F. E. Orr, Vermont Agency for Environmental Conservation; and Mr. R. F. Gregg, Chairman, New England River Basins Commission. Operations during fiscal year. Local interests along the shores of Lake Champlain and the reach of the Richelieu River upstream of Fryers Island Dam desire relief from high water stages and accompanying damages from inundation and erosion in those areas. At public hearings held by the Commission in Burlington, Vermont on April 24, 1973, and St. Jean's, Quebec on April 25, 1973, expressions of opinion with a view to reducing unusual high lake levels were obtained. At the public meetings, concern was expressed over the amount of damages being sustained by agricultural, recreational, and private interests due to high lake levels, and the possibility of severe environmental damage in the vein of draining wetlands, exposing mud flats, and losses to existing fishery, wildlife, and waterfowl resources, which would accompany lowering normal lake levels a significant degree. Earlier, as a result of severe flooding, the Province of Quebec. assisted by the Canadian Government, examined the possibility of flood control measures. Their report, published in 1972, summarizes these preliminary studies and inicates that works could be built in the vicinity of St. Jean, P. Q., that could alleviate flood damages by lowering extreme flood levels. The works covisaged include a gated control structure and n excavated channel through the natural control section of St. Jean rapids for a distance of a,- proximately two miles. This report was mad e available to the Commission, and later to tihe Board, by the Minister of Natural Resources, by letter dated May 4, 1973. In order to respond in a timely manner to the Commission's directive, the Engineering BoaiI undertook several aspects of the investigation simultaneously. Great emphasis was placed on the early resolution of the question of the desir:- bility of lake regulation and engineering alternitives to achieve such regulation. Two meetin -s were held by the Board: at New York, N. Y., on May 4, 1973 and at Quebec, Que., on June 14 - 15, 1973. A draft plan of study including the proposed environmental study was prepared. An Environmental Committee was established to determine the desirability and environmental effects of regulating Lake Champlain and to develop information. An Economics Committee and a Hydraulics Committee were established to prepare appropriate studies. The Board maintained informal liaison with the Lake Champlain Board of Control so that each Board may be aware of activities of the other which may be useful to it or may have a bearing on the conduct of investigations for which it is responsible. 2E. INTERNATIONAL ST. LAWRENCE RIVER BOARD OF CONTROL Constitution and duties. The Board was established December 16, 1953 pursuant to the provisions of the Order of Approval dated October 29, 1952, of the International Joint Commission of the construction of certain works for the development of power in the International Rapids Section of the St. Lawrence River. The Commission instructed the Board to perform the duties assigned to it by the Order of Approval. These responsibilities include the following items: (a) The Board is to determine the gages, measurements and other services to be provided by the Power Authority of the State of New York (PASNY) and the Hydro-Electric Power Commission of Ontario in order to furnish accurate records relating to water levels and the discharge of water through the works and the regulations of the flow of water through the International Rapids Section; (b) Upon completion of the works the 48-4 MISCELLANEOUS CIVIL WORKS duties of the Board shall be to insure that the provisions of the Commission's Orders relating to water levels and regulation of the discharge of water from Lake Ontario and the flow of water through the International Rapids Section are complied with, and that Ontario-Hydro and PASNY shall duly observe any direction given them by the Board for the purpose of insuring such compliance. The Board shall report to the Commission at such times as the Commission may determine; (c) In addition to the reports to be made by the Commission in accordance with the terms of the Order of Approval, the Board was requested to report to the Commission semi-annually and to keep the Commission currently informed with regard to the discharge of water from Lake Ontario and the flow through the International Rapids Section of the St. Lawrence River; and (d) At a meeting of the International Joint Commission in Toronto on January 25, 1957, studies of the regulation of Lake Ontario in furtherance of such studies accomplished by the International Lake Ontario Board of Engineers, were assigned to the Board of Control. Members of the Board for fiscal year. The Canadian members were: Mr. D. M. Ripley, Director, Marine Hydraulics Branch, Ministry of Transport, Chairman Canadian Section; Mr. J. B. Bryce, Hydraulic Engineer, Hydro-Electric Power Commission of Ontario: Mr. Y. DeGuise, Commissioner, Hydro-Electric Power Commission of Quebec; and Mr. R. H. Clark, Special Adviser to the Director General, Inland Waters Directorate, Department of the Environment. The United States members were: The Division Engineer, U.S. Army Engineer Division, North Central, Chairman U. S. Section; Mr. Desloge Brown, Head, Section of Inspections, Federal Power Commission; Mr. R. D. Conner, Assistant Resident Manager, Power Authority of the State of New York; and Mr. F. F. Snyder, Hydraulic Engineer, U. S. Army, Office, Chief of Engineers, (Retired). Major General E. Graves was the Division Engineer, U. S. Army Engineer Division, North Central during the year. Operations during fiscal year. The Board met on September 5, 1972, October 2, January 18, April 3, and May 28. The Board also met with the Commission on January 26, 1973, to apprise them of its proposed plan of operation to minimize the predicted high water levels on Lake Ontario and they also participated in Public Hearings, held in May by the Commission, on proposed new regulation of water levels of Lake Superior and Ontario, and in June members toured the St. Lawrence River to observe the high water conditions. The Board monitored the operation of the St. Lawrence project observing regulation plan 1958-D, and using it's discretionary authority. The Board's Operations Advisory Group continued to provide weekly summaries of its activities and recommendations. The Board's Working Committee periodically reviewed the high water situation on Lake Ontario and in the St. Lawrence River in response to numerous complaints of flooding and shore damage. At its May meeting the Board agreed to study the adequacy of existing regulation Plan 1958-D under existing hysical constraints and extended periods of igh water supplies, and planned to submit a report on this to the Great Lakes Levels Board for inclusion in that Board's final report. The Power Entities continued their operation and maintenance of the gages required by the Board for recording river levels and flows. During the year the levels and outflows have continued to be regulated in accordance with the Commission's directive of April 8, 1960 and Orders of Approval date October 1952 and July 2, 1956. Water supplies to the Great Lakes during the year have been well above normal, with the result that all lakes have remained above their long-term average levels. The supply of 315,000 cfs to Lake Ontario from Lake Erie in July is the maximum recorded for that month. The supplies to Lake Ontario during the months of November, December, February, March and April were the highest for these months during the period of record. During the year the approved range of stage was exceeded during the period April through July, when the monthly mean level of Lake Ontario exceeded elevation 246.77 feet, the maximum elevation specified under the Orders of Approval, criterion (h). Lake Ontario peaked at an elevation of 247.99 from May 28 through June 1, 1973. The Regulation Representatives have continued to report each month on the supply conditions and to advise the Board on levels and outflows that could result under various future supply conditions. By letter dated January 25, 1973, the Board outlined to the Commission the course of action which it proposed to follow to reduce the amount the level of Lake Ontario will exceed 246.77 during 1973. The key features, as outlined in the letter, were as follows: (1) The Board, under its discretionary authority granted by the Commission, will continue to approve the maximum practicable discharges from Lake Ontario during the present winter period, consistent with the requirements to form and retain stable ice covers. (2) At the end of the present winter period, the approved outflow will be set at preproject or Plan 1958-D amount, whichever is the greater, consistent with the capability of the system to accommodate flows of such magnitude. 48-5 REPORT OF THE CHIEF OF ENGINEERS, U.S. ARMY 1973 (3) Should it be determined by the Board at any time that the desired results of the action proposed have been achieved, the Board will approve a return to Lake Ontario outflows as prescribed by Plan 1958-D. The proposal was made at that time since it appeared that one or more of the criteria would be violated as a result of the high water supplies. This action would provide level on Lake Ontario lower than preproject, or Plan 1958-D, while providing outflows which are no worse than preproject. On January 26, 1973, the Board met with the Commission to present and discuss these proposals. The Commission concurred in the above course of action. The Board informed the Commission by telegram dated May 17, 1973 of the action being taken to increase the outflow of Lake Ontario above prep roject in the interests of reducing the amount the level of Lake Ontario exceeded 246.77. This course of action was a departure from the general guidelines recommended to the Commission and approved on January 26, 1973, and reflected the Board's concern about the continuing high water levels on Lake Ontario and the possibility that a continuation of the very large supplies to Lake Ontario could lead to even further flooding and shore damage on the Lake next year. By letter of June 5, 1973 the Board also informed the Commission of its awareness of the constraints imposed by downstream conditions and the potential difficulties for navigation in the project area resulting from the higher flows. The Board also pointed out that this course of action during the emergency situation would not have been possible without the continued acceptance by downstream riparian and navigation interest of a level of hazard not contemplated when the St. Lawrence Project was built and the present regulation system introduced. During the period of these higher flows it was brought to te attention of the Board that navigation was experiencing considerable difficulty and several reported groundings were alleged to have resulted form the higher current velocities. The official closing date for the 1972 navigation season in the Montreal - Lake Ontario section of the St. Lawrence Seaway was December 15. However, due to the large number of ocean vessels, this section remained open beyond that date on a day-to-day basis until December 23. On December 17, 1972, the Board under its discretionary authority, approved progressive reduction in discharge from a flow of 296,000 cfs to 230,000 cfs by December 20. These reductions were requested by Hydro-Quebec in response to ice conditions at their Beauharnois-Cedars Complex, which were further complicated by the parting of a section of the farthest downstream ice boom in the Beauharnois Canal. This was attributed by Hydro-Quebec to abnormal ice pressure because three of the booms upstream had been kept open to allow passage of ships. Minor flooding occured in the area between Cedars and the Coteau Dam on December 18. Power production was reduced about 25% at Beauharnois for several weeks after the occurence. On December 19, the vessel Ottercliffe Hall became stuck in the ice several miles above the Beauharnois lock and impeded all traffic until freed by ice breaker assistance on December 21. Navigation in the Beauharnois Canal closed on December 22. Final closure of the Ogdenburg- Prescott ice boom was completed on December 21 and closure of the Galops booms was completed on December 23. Formation of an ice cover min the International Rapids Section began with the onset of cold weather on January 7. Due to an unusually mild winter, the ice cover began to deteriorate much earlier than usual and the ice booms in the river were removed beginning March 15. The U.S. St. Lawrence Seaway Development Corporation proposed to incorporate a movable section in the Ogdensburg-Prescott ice boom, which is installed and maintained each winter by PANSY and Ontario Hydro. The movable section would be so arranged that it could be opened for individual ship transit and closed after each transit to restore boom integrity. The main concern of the Board was the effect that operation of such an installation might have on the levels and flows of Lake Ontario and the St. Lawrence River. During the winter season both the St. Lawrence Seaway Development Corporation and the Marine Services of the Canadian Ministry of Transport completed two independent "gate-booms" in the Ogdensburg-Prescott ice boom. The Tug Robinson Bay transisted the Canadian gate on December 22, 1972. The first test operation of the St. Lawrence Seaway Development Corporation gate was on March 12, 1973. For the first time since regulation of Lake Ontario began, the flow exceeded the capacity of the Saunders - Moses power plants, with the result that water was spilled over Long Sault Dam commencing April 14 through the end of June. The amount of water spilled was highest in June, at about 25,000 cfs. 2F. INTERNATIONAL NIAGARA BOARD OF CONTROL Constituion and duties. The Board was established August 19, 1953 by the International Joint Commission to supervise the construction, maintenance and operation of the Niagara Remedial Works, recommended by the Commission in its 1953 report on the "Preservation and Enhancement of Niagara Falls." 48-6 MISCELLANEOUS CIVIL WORKS Members of the Board for fiscal year. The United States members were the Division Engineer, U. S. Army Engineer Division, North Central, Chairman, U. S. Section; and Mr. D. Brown, Head, Section of Inspections, Federal Power Commission. Major General E. Graves was Division Engineer during the year. The Canadian members were Mr. R. H. Clark, Special Adviser to the Director General, Inland Waters Branch, Department of the Environment, Chairman, Canadian Section and Mr. G. Millar, Chief Engineer, Harbours and Rivers Engineering Branch, Department of Public Works until July 24, 1972, an Mr. C. K. Hurst, Chief Engineer, Department of Public Works, thereafter. Operations during fiscal year. The St. Lawrence Seaway Authority carried out the final phase of its construction program for a new eight-mile section of the Welland Canal to by-pass the City of Welland, Ontario, providing improvements to navigation and replacing a section which was an obstacle to rail and street traffic within the city. In carrying out this phase of work, the total flow through the Canal was reduced commencing December 19, 1972, and from December 21 to January 31, 1973, averaged about 325 cfs. Full flow was restored on March 2, 1973. Estimates indicate that the storage of water on Lake Erie due to the reduced flow was equivalent to approximately 1 inch of lake level. Concurrently the flow through the DeCew Falls Power Plant varied between zero and about 300 cfs, and on February 27 was about 2,200 cfs. Full flow through the plant was restored on March 2. Increased flows through the Welland Canal occured afterwards in order to dissipate the storage on Lake Erie. Maximum hourly diversions to the DeCew Falls Plant reached 7,200 cfs (compared to the normal 6,400 cfs winter diversion). From July 1, 1972 to February 28, 1973, the control structure was operated to maintain the Grass Island Pool at normal levels +0.5 foot of the daily mean and +0.3 foot of the monthly mean as established by the Board. The Power Entities complied with the Board's instructions in the operation of the Pool; however, it was necessary to suspend the tolerances on November 27, December 13 and 16, 1972 and January 1 and 4, 1973 due to high river flows caused by storm conditions on Lake Erie. The tolerances were also suspended on January 12 and 18, 1973 due to ice conditions. In December 1972, the Board proposed to the Commission that a change be made in the operating regime for the Pool and the Commission approved the Board's proposal, subject to minor changes. The Board directed the Power Entities to implement the new operation procedures commencing March 1 and they complied. It is the intent of the new procedure to maintain the long-term mean elevation of the Pool at 561.0 feet as recorded at the Material Dock Gage, with a view to ameliorating adverse effects of high or low water levels in the Pool. Under the new operation, the upper Niagara River profile will approach the mean flow profile over the long term, while in the short term it will provide the benefits of higher river profiles during period of low flow, and lower river profiles during periods of high flow. It was necessary to suspend the tolerances 10 times March - June 1973, due to river flows in excess of 270,000 cfs for a period of four or more consecutive hours. During the year the computed flow over the Falls.was below Treaty requirements on September 20, twice on October 3, and on October 14, all due to clerical errors made during operation of control structure cause by inexperienced personnel. During most of the non-tourist hours in the year there was flow in excess of Treaty requirements over the Falls. These excess flows were caused by high river discharges, limited diversion capability of the power plants and the requirement to meet the Board's tolerance on Pool levels. On April 17, 1973, the Governments of the United States and Canada exchanged Notes agreeing that Article IV of the Niagara Treaty is to be interpreted as Eastern Daylight Savings Time (EDST) when such time is in effect in either Niagara Falls, New York, or Niagara Falls, Ontario. The aerial metering cableway has been installed immediately upstream of the Robert Moses Power Plant tailrace, and will provide a means for the direct measurement of the total flow past the Ashland Avenue gage. Installation of the cable car and measuring will follow. The American Falls channel gage was in operation and the data are being published as provisional data, pending establishment of a reliable stage-discharge relationship reflecting existing conditions and pending relocation of the present American Falls channel gage 400 feet upstream of its present location. Continuous flow records will be obtained at the Ashland Avenue gaging stations during the construction of the new "George Pumping Station" for the City of Niagara Falls, New York to obtain the recorded flow over Niagara Falls and outflow from the Maid-of-the-Mist Pool. Flow measurements were taken at various locations of the river as part of the continuing program to monitor flows in the Niagara River. Persistent above-normal precipitation has produced recorded high monthly mean Niagara River flows making more water available for ower production. Record maximum monthly evels were established for Lake Erie for all 48-7 REPORT OF THE CHIEF OF ENGINEERS, U.S. ARMY 1973 months September 1972 - June 1973 with the monthly mean level of 573.45 feet for June 1973, the new maximum high. These record stages on Lake Erie have resulted in flows over the Bird Island Pier in the Niagara River. The Board submitted to the Commission a report entitled "Operation of the Lake Erie - Niagara River Ice Boom During the 1971-72 Winter Season." The Board initiated a follow-up study to determine if the boom affects ice conditions on Lake Erie and the Niagara River and plans to submit another report. An advisory group of ice experts had been consulted during the course of the study to obtain their advice and technical guidance. In accordance with condition (d) of the Commission's 1969 Supplementary Order, closure of the Lake Erie-Niagara River Ice Boom commenced on December 11 and was closed on December 14, 1972. The first ice of the season began forming along the shores on January 7, with large amounts of slush ice beginning to form in the Lake and upper Niagara River on January 10. An ice bridge formed in the Maid-of-the-Mist Pool on January 11 and remained in place until March 11. An aerial survey on January 13 revealed an ice field of approximately 25 square miles upstream of the boom with a band extending west along the Canadian shore. The January thaw and moderate winds caused the ice cover upstream from the boom to break up resulting in large quantities of ice passing over the boom. Soon afterwards boom spans 5 and 12 were broken. The heavy Niagara River ice runs were not solely the result of ice rushing through the broken spans, but rather the result of ice overriding most of the boom. The Power Entities estimated that approximately 30-35 square miles of Lake ice passed into the Niagara River between January 16-20. Reductions were made in the diversions to the Robert Moses Power Plant to avoid blockage at the intakes to the plant and in the Tonawanda Channel. On February 13, after three nights of continous subfreezing temperatures, Lake Erie was 75 percent ice covered above the ice boom. The Board made an aerial survey of the ice field at the eastern end of the Lake on February 27 and reported it 50 percent ice covered. The Commission held a Public Meeting in Buffalo, New York, on February 28 on the effect of the ice boom. Early March surveys indicated approximately 5,500 square miles of ice cover remained on the lake and the ice field dissipating rapidly. By mid-March practically no ice cover remained on the Lake. Boom removal commenced on March 16 and all spans were opened and removed by March 21. The shipping season opened in Buffalo, New York, on March 20. It was one of the earliest openings of lake shipping in Buffalo in recent years. Interlake shipping commenced on March 28 when a ship entered the Welland Canal. Board representatives have carried out periodic shore inspections of the river to insure that no unauthorized fills or structures were being undertaken. The Board reported an extensive fill of 118 feet into the river was placed by the Niagara: Hardware and Lumber Limited and Agrette Limited without a permit along the Canadian shore in Fort Erie. 2G. INTERNATIONAL NIAGARA COMMITTEE Constitution and duties. The Treaty of 1950 between Canada and the United States concerning the uses of waters of the Niagara River was signed on February 27, 1950. By its provisions, limitations on the diversions of Niagara River water for power in accordance with Article V of the Treaty of 1909 are terminated and temporary international agreements for the allocating of waters of the Niagara River for power purposes are replaced. In accordance with provisions of Article VII of the Treaty, a representative was appointed by each government who, acting jointly, shall ascertain and determine the amounts of water available for the purposes of this treaty, and shall record the same and shall also record the amounts of water used for power diversions. By an exchange of notes during January 1955, the two Governments officially designated the representatives appointed in conformance with Article VII of the 1950 Treaty as the International Niagra Committee. With regard to flows and diversions, the Treaty of 1950 became effective October 10, 1950. Under terms of the Treaty, all waters in excess of certain minimum flows which are required to maintain the scenic spectacle at Niagara Falls are available for diversion for power and, with the exception of the 5,000 cubic eet per second authorized October 1940 for diversion by Canada, are to be allocated equally between both countries. Minimum flows over the Falls shall not be less than 100,000 cubic feet per second between 8 am and 10 pm EST from April 1 to September 15, and 8 am to 8 pm from September 16 to October 31. At all other times the flow over the Falls shall not be less than 50,000 cubic feet per second. A brief history regarding the measurement and supervision of diversion of waters from the Niagara River prior to the designation of the representatives appointed under Article VII of the 1950 Treaty is included in the Committee's 1955 Annual Report. Members of the Committee for fiscal year. The Canadian representative was Mr. R. H. Clark, Special Adviser to the Director General, Inland Waters Branch, Department of the Environment, and the U. S. Representative, was the Division 48-8 MISCELLANEOUS CIVIL WORKS Engineer, U. S. Army Engineer Division, North Central. Major General E. Graves was Division Engineer during the fiscal year. Operations during fiscal year. The Committee received daily reports of operation of the hydro- electric generating stations on the Niagara River which diverted water from the river above the Falls, and the DeCew Falls Plant, which diverts water from Lake Erie through the Welland Canal. These reports, submitted in the form prescribed by the Committee and showing for each hour the quanities of water diverted by each plant, were checked by the Committee. Monthly and annual summaries were prepared. The Committee included with each monthly summary an explanation of any Treaty violation which may have occurred during the month. Bi-weekly and intermittent inspections of all plants were made by representatives of the Committee, jointly and individually, to obtain independent watt-meter readings of power output and to assure compliance with all provision of the Treaty. Records of water lemzls in the Niagara River above and below the Falls were obtained by means of self-registering gages. However, the American Falls channel water level gage used for the purpose of determining flows over the American Falls has been providing inconsistent data since the rewatering of the Falls in November 1969. This has been attributed to modifications made at the gage intake during the dewatering period. Plans are being made to relocate this gage installation. In 1973, the two Governments agreed to use Eastern Daylight Saving Time (EDST) when offically in effect in either country at Niagara Falls, rather that Eastern Standard Time (EST) as stipulated in the 1950 Treaty. The Welland Canal flow was curtailed from mid-December 1972 to late February 1973 to allow the St. Lawrence Seaway Authority to complete final construction on the new Canal By-pass around the City of Welland. During this period the flow averaged less than 300 cfs compared to normal winter flow of about 6,400 cfs. Such action caused the level of Lake Erie to be temporarily one inch higher. The Welland Canal discharged greater than normal flows once the Welland By-pass was completed to compensate for the earlier reduced flow. 2H. AMERICAN FALLS INTERNATIONAL BOARD Constitution and duties. In a Reference dated March 31, 1967, the Governments of the United States and Canada, pursuant to Article IV of the Boundary Waters Treaty of 1909, requested the International Joint Commission to investigate and report upon measures necessary to preserve and enhance the beauty of the American Falls at Niagara. The Board was established July 24, 1967, by the Commission to carry out the investigations required under the Reference. Members of the Board for fiscal year. The U. S. members of the Board were the Division Engineer, U. S. Army Engineer Division, North Central, Chairman, U. S. Section; and Mr. G. Eckbo, Chairman, Department of Landscape Artictecture, University of California, Berkeley. Major General E. Graves was North Central Division Engineer during the fiscal year. Canadian members were Mr. J. D. McLeod, Senior Engineer, Department of the Environment, Chairman, Canadian Section, until February 1, 1973 and Mr. N. J. James, Chief, Engineering Division, same office thereafter, and Mr. H. S. M. Carver, Chief, Advisory Group, Central Mortgage and Housing Corporation, Ottawa, (Retired). Operations during fiscal year. The U. S. Army Corps of Engineers received study funds of $300,000 for the fiscal year. Departments of the Canadian Government funded operations of their personnel who are involved in Board and its Committee activities. The expenses of the representative of the two Park Commissions have been borne by the respective Park Commission. The Board considered the request contained in the Commission's letter of April 21, 1972, for an early report on the remedial measures and the Board determined that this report could be submitted in January 1974. Detailed results of all of the geologic studies are not available, however, the January 1974 report will provide information for the Governments to decide whether or not to proceed with advanced engineering required for construction of the remedial works. The Board scheduled completion of its final report for December 1974; this report will include alternative measures of increasing flows over the American Falls, raising the level of the Maid-of-the-Mist Pool and removing talus. The work for the safety warning system planned during the summer and fall of 1972 consisted of drilling a total of seven borings, instrumenting five of the borings, and installing frost-free survey monuments. (1) At Terrapin Point, horizontal drilling was terminated because of unsafe conditions resulting from potentially unstable rock. The scaling and clearing operation revealed several major vertical fractures are significant structural defects and a menace to public safety. The outer part of the viewing area was closed off by a fence by the Niagara Frontier State Park Commission. (2) At Prospect Point, one bore hole was instrumented. Five frost- free survey monuments were installed. 48-9 REPORT OF THE CHIEF OF ENGINEERS, U.S. ARMY 1973 (3) At the Goat Island flank of the American Falls, one angle boring was drilled in the 1972 and instrumented in the spring of 1973. Six frost-free survey monuments were installed. (4) All installed instrumentation was monitored and the frost-free monuments were surveyed periodically. No mass rock movement was noted. The study of ice behavior in the Maid-of-theMist Pool started in January 1971, was continued during the 1972-73 ice season. It is planned to continue the study for one more winter. The Board completed its work and use of the aesthetic model of the American Falls at the Ontario Hydro Hydraulics Laboratory at Islington, Ontario. Additional photography of views from the flanks was carried out in January 1973 and afterwards the model was dismantled and the contract with Ontario Hydro concluded. In an endeavour to obtain greater public expression of reaction to its proposals, the Board undertook a comprehensive program for public involvment, commencing min the summer of 1973 and prepared a Public Information Brochure with a ictorial and descriptive presentation of the aesthetic alternatives: removing talus, raising the Maid-of-the Mist Pool, increasing the flow over the American Falls, or allowing the Falls to remain as they are now. The implementation of the proposals contained in the Board's Interim Report would involve very substantial costs; therefore, the Board felt it should obtain informed expressions to opinion on the desirability of these proposals. For this purpose the Board conducted a seminar in June 1973 at Niagara Falls, Ontario. Fifteen consultants invited by the Board (nine from the U. S. and six from Canada) attended the seminar on June 11-12, 1973. The participants were the most eminently qualified group that could be assembled from the U. S. and Canada for this purpose and the clarity and unanimity of their expressed views are, therefore, of great significance. The group of consultants were quite positive in their rejection of changing the appearance of the Falls and they were equally positive min urging that there is a critical need for an international study of the entire area surrounding the river and leading to measures of control and management to protect and improve the whole environment of the Falls. They concluded that the deteriorating condition of the larger scene around the Falls was a matter of much more serious concern than the appearance of the Falls themselves. The Erie and Niagara Counties Regional Planning Board published its Report - "International Environmental Study, Environment Enhancement of the Niagara River," in November 1971. Their study was an offsping of the Board's recommendations to the Commission for an environmental study that would analyze the problems of the region and suggest a formal mechanism for their solution. Their report establishes some guidelines for the improved management of Niagara River activities which could prove to be environmentally hazardous. The Board reviewed this report and noted a favorable reaction. The construction of commercial developments continue the trend of serious encroachment on the environment of the Falls and this has been of serious concern to the Commission and the Board since the beginning of the study in 1967. The Niagara State Park and Recreation Commission contracted for remedial repairs to Luna Island and the Bridal Veil Falls as well as the construction of trenches at Prospect Point to inspect the bed rock. This was completed in October 1972 and Luna Island was reopened for the 1973 tourist season. 21. INTERNATIONAL GREAT LAKES LEVELS BOARD Constitution and duties. The Governments of Canada and the United States, By Reference dated October 7, 1964, requested the International Joint Commission to determine whether measures within the Great Lakes Basin can be' taken in the public interest to regulate further the levels of the Great Lakes or any of them and their connecting waters so as to reduce the extremes of stages which have been experienced, and for the beneficial effects in these waters. At a meeting on December 2, 1964. the International Joint Commission established the Board to undertake the necessary investigations and studies and to advise the Commission on all matters which it must consider in making a report or reports to the Government under the Reference. At the first meeting of the Board on January 6, 1965, a Working Committee was selected. The Working Committee met on July 7, 1965 and set up four Subcommittees to investigate and report on the separate areas of study involved: Shore Property, Navigation, Power and Regulation. A Subcommittee on Regulatory Works was subsequently established by the Working Committee in September 1967 and a Reports Subcommittee in June 1968. Members of the Board for fiscal year. United States members of the Board were Mr. L. G. Feil, (Retired), Office, Chief of Engineers, U. S. Army, Chairman, United States Section until July 1972 and Major Generel E. Graves, Division Engineer, U. S. Army, North Central Division, thereafter; Mr. M. Abelson, Regional Coordinator, Department of the Interior; and Mr. B. T. Jose, Assistant Administrator, St. Lawrence Seaway Develop- 48-10 MISCELLANEOUS CIVIL WORKS ment Corporation, Department of Transportation. Canadian Members of the Board were Mr. C. K. Hurst, Chief, Maintenance and Operations, Harbors and Rivers Engineering Branch, Department of Public Works, Chairman, Canadian Section; Mr. R. H. Smith, Director, Marine Hydraulics Branch, Ministry of Transport; and Mr. N. H. James, Water Management Service, Department of the Environment. The Working Committee consists of five members representing the United States and three representing Canada. U. S. members of the Working Committee were Dr. L. H. Blakey, Chief Engineering Division, U. S. Army Engineer Division, North Central Chairman, U. S. Section; Mr. M. Abelson; Mr. F. A. Blust, Lake Survey Center, NOAA, Department of Commerce; Mr. J. H. Spellman, Deputy Regional Engineer, New York Regional Office, Federal Power Commission; and Mr. J. D. Officer, St. Lawrence Seaway Development Corporation, Department of Transportation. Canadian members of the Working Committee were Mr. R. H. Clark, Special Adviser to the Director General, Inland Waters Branch, Department of the Environment, Chairman, Canadian Section; Mr. D. W. Quinlan, Manager, Construction and Engineering, Department of Public Works; and Mr. C. J. R. Lawrie, Marine Hydraulics Branch, Ministry of Transport. The six subcommittees have been formed with membership drawn from agencies participating in the study and represented on the Board and Working Committee. Operations during fiscal year. The activities of the Board, it's Working Committee and Subcommittees during the year focused on completion of the Main Report with seven Appendices. Due to the current and projected high water conditions on the Great Lakes, the Commission requested the Board by letter dated January 15, 1973 to report it's interim findings and conclusions with respect to a new regulation plan for Lake Superior (on modified operations at Sault Ste. Marie). The Board provided the requested information by letter dated February 22, 1973. An Interim Report supporting the Board's findings and conclusions and recommending a new regulation objective for Lake Superior regulation was submitted to the Commission on March 15, 1973. The Board held eight meetings during the fiscal year, mainly to review portions of, or all the drafts of, the Interim and Main Report which is scheduled for completion in October 1973. 2J. COORDINATING COMMITTEE ON GREAT LAKES BASIC HYDRAULIC AND HYDROLOGIC DATA Constitution and duties. The Committee was formed on May 7, 1953 for the purpose of establishing a basis for development and acceptance by both countries (United States and Canada) of identical hydraulic and hydrologic data for the Great Lakes and their outflow channels. The Committee was established advisory to the agencies of the United States and Canada which are charged with the responsibility for collecting and compiling the Great Lakes hydraulic and hydrologic data. Three working subcommittees, designated the River Flow Subcommittee, the Vertical Control Subcommittee and the Lake Level Subcommittee were formed to assist the Coordinating Committee in its work. Subsequently, the Physical Data Subcommittee was formed. The Vertical Control and Lake Level Subcommittees were combined into one subcommittee in 1969. These subcommittees have been conducting the required technical studies through collaboration of the appropriate agencies of the United States and Canada. Members of the Committee for fiscal year. The United States members were Mr. D. J. Leonard, Chief, Water Control Center, U. S. Army Engineeer Division, North Central, Chairman, U. S. Section; Mr. B. G. DeCooke, Assistant Chief, Engineering Division, U. S. Army Engineer District, Detroit; and Mr. F. A. Blust, Chief, Marine Mapping Division, U. S. Lake Survey Center, National Ocean Survey, NOAA, Department of Commerce. Members for Canada were Mr. D. F. Witherspoon, Great Lakes-St. Lawrence Study Office, Department of the Environment, Chairman, Canadian Section, and Mr. R. H. Smith, Director Marine Hydraulics Branch, Ministry of Transport. Operations during fiscal year. The River Flow Subcommittee continued it's study of coordinated St. Clair River and Detroit River flows. The Vertical Control and Lake Level Subcommittee continued preparation of gage histories for Lakes Michigan-Huron, St. Clair and Detroit Rivers. Re-evaluation of International Great Lakes Datum (IGLD 1955) is continuing. Vertical (crustal and other) movement assessments are also being determined and coordinated. The Physical Data Subcommittee completed work on determining the water volumes of Lakes Huron and Superior and coordination of shoreline mileages of the Great Lakes. A report publishing Great Lakes physical data is being prepared. 2K. INTERNATIONAL GREAT LAKES STUDY GROUP Constitution and duties. The Study Group is an informal organization including representatives of Canadian and U. S. agencies and institutions engaged in basic and applied research, and engineering investigations related to the develop- 48-11 REPORT OF THE CHIEF OF ENGINEERS, U.S. ARMY 1973 ment and utilization of the Great Lakes water resources. The Group was formed October 1962 as the Lake Erie Study Group and was later renamed the International Great Lakes Study Group in recognition of the members interest in all the Great Lakes. Its primary purpose is to facilitate the exchange of information and to provide informal coordination among the various research activities relating to the Lakes. The Group provides a forum for assisting, coordinating and eliminating duplication. It also sponsors a data repository for the cataloging, storage and circulation of basic data. Members of the Group for fiscal year. The Steering Committee for the Study Group consists of up to six members from each country. During the year the United States Chairman was Mr. L. T. Crook, Planning Director, Great Lakes Basin Commission. Members were Mr. S. H. Fonda, Jr., until April 1973 and Mr. D. J. Leonard thereafter, Chief, Water Control Center, U. S. Army Corps of Engineers, North Central Divistion; Dr. D. C. Chandler, Director, Great Lakes Research Division, University of Michigan; Dr. A. P. Pinzak, Lake Survey Center, NOAA, Department of Commerce; Dr. Ralph Rumer, State University of New York at Buffalo; and Mr. L. A. Cook, Michigan Water Resources Commission. The Canadian members of the Group were Dr. A. D. Misener, Director, Great Lakes Institute, University of Toronto; Mr. T. L. Richards, Meterological Service of Canada, Department of Transport; Mr. J. P. Bruce, Director, Canada Centre for Inland Waters; Dr. A. M. McCombie, Ontario Department of Lands and Forests; and Mr. F. A. Voege, Assistant General Manager, Ontario Water Resources Commission. Operations during the fiscal year. The coordination of research activities has been continued during the year. The Study Group has continued its coordination of research activities in connection with the International Field Year of the Great Lakes and the International Hydrologic Decade. Activities related to Large Lake Research Program, Precipitation Chemistry and Atmospheric Pollution have been coordinated in connection with the activities of the Federal Interagency Committee. The Study Group has continued its efforts to get most or all agencies concerned with the Great Lakes closer and to coordinate their activities. The activities of several Subcommittees have continued. The Shore Processes Subcommittee has been established to look into research activities related to Great Lakes shoreline problems. During the year the Study Group met in Burlington, Ontario on October 16, 1972 with the Steering Committee. At the meeting the Federal, State and Provincal activities have been reported; also University activities have been reported and discussed for the awareness of all entities. The Group reported upon the navigation season extension program and the publication of "Project Forecasts." The Study Group formed a new Committee at this meeting called the Shoreline Use and Management Committee. 2L. INTERNATIONAL LAKE SUPERIOR BOARD OF CONTROL Constitution and duties. The Board, established in pursuance of Orders issued by the International Joint Commission May 26 and 27, 1914 is charged with the supervision of the operations of all compensating works and all power canals and appurtenances with a view to so controlling the outflow from Lake Superior as to maintain its level as nearly as may be between elevations 600.5 and 602.0 feet above mean water level at Father Point, Quebec (International Great Lakes Datum-1955) and to so control the outflow as to pre"nt the level of the St. Marys River below the locks from exceeding elevation 582.9 feet. Members of the Board for fiscal year. Mr. R. H. Clark, Special Advisor to the Director General, Inland Waters Branch, Department of the Environment was the member for Canada. The Division Engineer, U. S. Army Engineer Division, North Central was the United States member. Major General E. Graves was Division Engineer during the fiscal year. Operations during fiscal year. The Board kept in touch during the year with conditions pertaining to the regulation of Lake Superior through representatives of Canada and the United States in the area and by means of regular and systematic reports of the water levels on Lake Superior, in the St. Marys River above and below the Sault Ste. Marie Locks, and on Lake Huron. Records of discharge at Sault Ste. Marie throught the rapids, navigation canals and power plants were also systematically reported to the Board: Changes in the rate of outflow from Lake Superior are directed by the Board as indicated by the rule curve currently in use. During the past year the Board has continuted the use of the 1955 Modified Rule of 1949 for the regulation of Lake Superior until emergency measures ordered by the Commission reduced the flow on February 1, 1973 to 55,000 cubic feet per second for the remainder of the fiscal year. Because of high levels and expected above- normal supplies on Lake Superior in the summer of 1972, the Great Lakes Power Corporation was requested to re-establish flow through 48-12 MISCELLANEOUS CIVIL WORKS the Abitibi groundwood mill. In April 1972, the intake gates were opened at the mil. This action provided an additional outflow capacity of about 5,000 cfs which was utilized until December 1, 1972 when the fixed winter outflow was set at 80,000 cfs. By letters dated April 5 and June 14, 1972, the Great Lakes Fishery Commission requested the International Joint Commission to authorize a reduction in the number of gates open to between four and seven during the latter part of August 1972 to permit carrying out a sea lamprey control program in the Whitefish Island area of the St. Marys River at Sault Ste. Marie. The Board outlined to the Fishery Commission the conditions which would permit the lampricide rogram to be carried out in accordance with the existing Orders of Approval and directed closure of 12 gates over the period August 21-29, 1972. During this period, the minimum gate setting was 4 gates open. Board Members were present during the application of the lampricide on August 25. The Director, Sea Lamprey Control Centre at Sault Ste. Marie, Ontario, subsequently reported excellent results. The required maximum summer outflow setting of 16 gates open was re-established on August 29. In order to enable the Centre to prepare plans to alleviate the environmental impact of flow changes in the northern (Canadian) portion of the St. Marys Rapids, on the fish population, the Canadian Board Member undertook to arrange for the preparation of a detailed topographic map of the Whitefish Island area. The neld mapping survey was carried out during the period when gates were closed for maintenance work on the Canadian piers. The Board met at Sault Ste. Marie, Ontario, and made its annual inspection of the control works on August 24 and 25, 1972. A second meeting was held October 2, 1972. An underwater inspection of the structure, done in fiscal year 1972, did not yield sufficient information to allow formulation of a plan for repairing the deteriorated foundation. With the number of gates open in the control works reduced from sixteen to nine on September 16 and 18, 1972, work commenced on the repairs to the foundations of piers 6 and 7. The repair work was completed on October 16, 1972, at which time the 4 gates were opened. The remaining 3 gates were kept closed, until November 1, 1972, to allow proper curing of the concrete. By letter dated January 10, 1973 the Great Lakes Power Corporation informed the Canadian Board Member that a program is being prepared covering those repairs which are not yet complete. For the United States portion of the structure, some minor maintenance work is required on the submerged portions of piers 14, 15 and 16, but it is not critical and can be scheduled whenever outflow conditions permit. Diversion of water from the Albany River watershed into Lake Superior continued throughout FY 1973. The Great Lakes Levels Board terminated its winter gate test program at the Control Works in the St. Marys River and advised the Board of Control of this decision. The Board of Control accepted the offer of the Levels Board and acquired the steam heating facilities and equipment used to make test gate changes at the Control Works. Arrangements were made for continuous monitoring of the water levels in the lower St. Marys River for the winter of 1972-73. The 1972 navigation season on the St. Marys River ended on February 8, 1973, the latest date ever. Continuing hydraulic monitoring and visual inspections were made of the river, particularly in the Little Rapids Cut section. After a January 26, 1973, meeting with the Commission and other Boards, the Commission ordered the Board to reduce the total Lake Superior outflow from 71,000 to 55,000 cfs on February 1, 1973. This reduction was to be achieved by reducing the flows for power generation on the United States side. The Commission instructed the Board to deviate temporarily from the present regulation plan and to release the minimum quantity of water consistent with other requirements. The Board directed that 1 1/2 gates be open on the Canadian side of the works to provide necessary flow through the St. Marys Rapids reach instead of gates opened in the middle of the structure and also instructed its local representatives to reduce the U. S. power flows by about 15,000 cubic feet per second to achieve the desired total flow of 55,000 cfs. The reduction in flow over the five-month period, ending June 30, 1973, resulted in storing five and one-half inches of additional water on Lake Superior. Downstream there was a commensurate lowering effect on the levels of Lakes Huron, Michigan, St. Clair and Erie. During the period of reduced flows, ending June 30, 1973, the Commission considered a new regulation plan for Lake Superior which was repared by the Levels Board and held public earings with a view to deciding whether this plan should be implemented. Under the present regulation plan for Lake Superior, the outflow is determined solely by the level of that Lake while the new plan would take into consideration conditions downstream. A number of letters written on behalf of U. S. property owners were received by the U. S. Member of the Board concerning high water conditions on the lake and as the result of the 48-13 REPORT OF THE CHIEF OF ENGINEERS, U.S. ARMY 1973 emergency action by the Commission to reduce the outflow from Lake Superior as a further measure to alleviate the high water levels laguing the lower Great Lakes during the fisca year. Appropriate replies were communicated in each case. 2M. INTERNATIONAL PRAIRIE PORTAGE BOARD OF CONTROL Constitution and duties. The Board of Control was formed by the International Joint Commission for purpose of furnishing it with technical advice regarding suitability of a dam structure at Prairie Portage, Lake County, Minn. After approval of plans by Department of the Army and the Commission, the Board was retained to advise the Commission further regarding progress of construction and any other matters which might arise concerning this project. The U. S. Forest Service constructed a cofferdam before World War II but postponed work on the project during the war. On June 12, 1968 after a period of heavy rains the cofferdam was washed out, resulting in lowering the lake levels of Birch, Sucker, Moose, Newfound and Ensign Lakes. This caused considerable difficulty for boating, as shallow water exists at the outlet of the lakes. By November 10, 1968 the U. S. Forest Service completed reconstruction of the Prairie Portage cofferdam which had been functioning satisfactorily at the control dam for the lakes, Members of the Board for fiscal year. Mr. J. D. McLeod, Senior Engineer, Inland Waters Branch, Department of the Environment, represented Canada until March 1973 and Mr. R. H. Clark, Special Adviser to the Director General, same agency, thereafter, and Col. R. E. Cox, District Engineer, U. S. Army Engineer District, St. Paul, represented the United States. Operations during the fiscal year. The Forest Service did not receive funds during the year to construct the permanent Prairie Portage Dam. In response to a Forest Service request for an extension of the August 18, 1973 date of completion of the permanent dam, the Board recommended and the Commission approved an extension worded as follows: "The Forest Service should be directed to press more actively for funds to construct a permanent dam and that the final date for completion of construction should be deferred until 2 years after funds become available, or 1983, whichever comes first. Until completion of the permanent dam, the Forest Service shall make annual inspections and perform necessary maintenance on the temporary dam so as to provide some degree of assurance of safe life of the temporary structure until a new dam is constructed. The Forest Service shall make annual inspections of the temporary dam and complete necessary repairs and submit a report to te Board on these minspections and repairs." 2N. INTERNATIONAL RAINY LAKE BOARD OF CONTROL Constitution and duties. The Convention between the United States and Canada, ratified by U. S. Senate August 30, 1940, provides in part that: "The International Joint Commission . ... is hereby clothed with power to determine when emergency conditions exist in the Rainy Lake watershed, in the event the Commission shall determine that such emergency conditions exist." On June 8, 1939, the Commission issued an Order to the owners of dams at outlets of Namakan Lake and Rainy Lake, which provide for a method of regulation as recommended by the Board of Control. The Order provides for certain levels during the various seasons of the year as well as control of outflows, within view to securing most advantageous use of water in total to the various interest. A Supplementary Order dated October 1, 1957 modifed regulations for Namakan Lake to provide for some variation in operation based on anticipated spring runoff. This Supplementary Order was extended to October 1967 and again to October 1972, by action of the Commission on October 2, 1962 and April 5, 1967, respectively. On July 29, 1970, the Supplementary Order in the matter of emergency regulation of Rainy Lake and of the Boundary Waters in the Rainy Lake Watershed was approved by the Commission. Since that time, Rainy and Namakan Lakes have been operated in accordance with rules curves prescribed by this Supplementary Order. Members of the Board for fiscal year. Mr. J. D. McLeod, Senior Engineer, Inland Waters Branch, Department of he Environment, represented Canada until March 1973 and Mr. R. H. Clark, Special Adviser to the Director General, same agency, thereafter, and Col. R. E. Cox, District Engineer, U. S. Army Engineer District, St. Paul, represented the United States. Operations during fiscal year. Except for a brief period of substantial rain in mid July which caused both Rainy and Namakan Lakes to rise slightly above their respective maximum rule curves, operation of both lakes remained within the rule curves throughout 1972. Flows were average to below average during this period. Winter drawdown proceeded in a satisfactory manner within the rule curves. Snow surveys in early March found the basin snow cover to be only 50% of normal. Because of this, both Rainy 48-14 MISCELLANEOUS CIVIL WORKS and Namakan were allowed to stay close to the maximum rule curves on the date of maximum drawdown, 1 April. With little snowmelt runoff and no significant rains filling Rainy Lake was difficult. In fact, between the dates 22 May and 11 July, Rainy Lake levels were below the prescribed minimum rule curve. During this period, discharge was reduced to 4,00 cfs, the minimum allowable. Namakan was filled in a satisfactory manner, within the rule curves at all times. On April 11, 1973, the Board met at International Falls with local residents to discuss the operation of the lake levels. The main point brought up at this meeting was the continued objections to the low levels on the Namakan Chain of Lakes that occurred during the last two weeks of May. On July 5, 1973, personnel from the St. Paul District and the National Park Service met to discuss the proposed sale of the Kettle Falls dams by the Boise Cascade Company. 20. INTERNATIONAL LAKE OF THE WOODS CONTROL BOARD Constitution and duties. The Convention between the United States and Great Britain proclaimed July 17, 1925, provides for the regulation of the level of the Lake of the Woods in order to secure to the inhabitants of the United States and Canada the most advantageous use of the waters thereof, and of the waters flowing into and from the lake on each side of the boundary between the two countries. The Convention also rovides for the Government of Canada to estabsh and maintain a Canadian Lake of the Woods Control Board to regulate and control outflow of waters of the lake, and for establishment and maintenance of an International Lake of the Woods Control Board, composed of two engineers, one representing the United States and the other representing Canada, to whose approval the rate of total discharge shall be subject whenever the water level rises above elevation 1061 feet or falls below elevation 1056 feet, sea level datum. Members of the Board for fiscal year. Mr. J. D. McLeod, Senior Engineer, Inland Waters Branch, Department of the Environment, represented Canada, until March 1973 and Mr. R. H. Clark, Special Adviser to the Director General, same agency, thereafter, and Col. R. E. Cox, District Engineer, U. S. Army Engineer District, St. Paul, represented the United States. Operations during fiscal year. The Control Board maintained supervision to insure that every effort was being made to comply with the provisions of the Convention. On July 1, 1972, Lake of the Woods was at a fairly low level of 1059.0 and steady. Welcome rains fell in mid July and mid August which raised the lake to near 1060.0 by the end of August. With this rise, it was possible to discharge 15,000 to 17,000 cfs from Lake of the Woods throughout the winter period, which is nearly optimum for hydropower installations on the Winnipeg River. By mid March, the lake had been drawn to a desirable level of 1057.3 feet, but it began to be apparent that the below-normal snow cover would not produce sufficient runoff for a satisfactory refill of Lake of the Woods. On March 15, outflows were reduced form 16,500 to 13,000 and to 10,- 000 cfs on April 1. After April 15, the outflow from Lake of the Woods was maintained at 6,000 cfs. Lake of the Woods reached a minimum elevation of 1057.2 on April 3 and had filled very slowly to approximately 1058.0 on June 31. The levels are well within the range of 1056 - 1061.25 feet as set forth in the 1925 Treaty but are undesirable at this time of year as far as most boating and recreation interest are concerned. On April 10 and 12, 1972, the Board met with local interests in International Falls and Kenora, respectively, to discuss the levels of Lake of the Woods. These meetings are a cooperative effort of both the Canadian and United States members of the Board to arrive at the best solution for the operating problems. Discussion at both meetings centered around the prospects of low water and what could be done about it, with primary interest being on a narrower operating range of approximately 2 feet. 2P. INTERNATIONAL PEMBINA RIVER ENGINEERING BOARD Constitution and duties. The Board was established April 3, 1962 by the International Joint Commission to investigate and report upon the measures which could be taken to develop the water resources of the Pembina River, Manitoba and North Dakota, and to reduce recurring flood losses in the basin. The Board performs technical investigations and studies necessary to enable the Commission to prepare and submit its report and recommendations to the Governments of Canada and the United States. Members of the Board for fiscal year. The Board consists normally of six members. The Canadian respresentatives were Mr. J. G.

During June 1965 the Commission, with the Board in attendance, held public hearings in Manitou, Manitoba and Walhalla, North Dakota, where the views of concerned interest were presented relative to the information and conclusions in the Board's report. Subsequently, the Commission prepared a separate report, date 1967, which was furnished to the Governments of Canada and the United States. To date no action has been taken by either Government and the Board was in an inactive status during the fiscal year. 2Q. INTERNATIONAL SOURIS-RED RIVERS ENGINEERING BOARD Construction and duties. The Board was established April 3, 1948 by the International Joint Commission to investigate and report on the water resources of a board area along the international boundary extending from the Milk River drainage basin in the west up to and including the drainage basin at the Red River of the North on the east. The Board reported in 1959 to the Commission that the possible exception of the Pembina River there were no significant problems on international streams within the terms of the January 12, 1948 Reference and assignment. The Board has been retained to investigate and report on the water and related problems of material concern to the two countries arising out of the operation of existing dams and other work or proposed water related improvements, proposals for further uses of water by either of the two countries, recommendations concerning the apportionment between the two countries of those waters which cross the international boundary, and to investigate and review plans of mutual advantage of the two countries for the conservation, control and use of the waters within the area of reference. The Board reports annually to the Commission. Members of the Board for fiscal year. The Board consist of six members. The Canadian representatives were Mr. J. G. Watson, Chief Engineer, Department of Regional Economic Expansion, Department of Agriculture, Regina, Saskatchewan, Chairman, Canadian Section; Mr. R. H.

Hendrick Chief Hydrologist, Water Resource Division, 1. S. Geological Survey, Department of the Interior; and Col. R. E. Cox, District Engineer, U. S Army Engineer District, St. Paul, Minnesota. Operations during the fiscal year. In accordance with the August 20, 1969 instructions from the Commission the Board has been considering the survey report for flood control prepared by the Corps o Engineers on the Souris River. North Dakota. The Board has been requested to report to the Commission on the effects of the Corps of Engineers authorized Burlington Reservoir on the Souris River near Minot, North Dakota, upstream in Saskatchewan and downstream during period of reservoir drawdown on flows in Manitoba. An ad hoc Engineering Committee, including representatives of the Corps of Engineers and the U. S. Geological Survey, is conducting the necessary United States studies and working with Canadian members in preparation of the required reports. The Study is under way but completion had been delayed pending approval of the damsite location, the amount of storage to be provide, and the method of operation. The Board's report will be completed in fiscal year 1974. 2R. INTERNATIONAL ROSEAU RIVER ENGINEERING BOARD Constitution and duties. The Board was re-established by the International Joint Commission on August 26, 1971 to undertake, through appropriate agencies in Canada and the United States, the necessary investigations and studies and to advise the Commission on all matters which it must consider in making a final and complete report on the questions referred to it by the two Governments in the December 14, 1928 Reference: (a) should there be coordinated projects for the Control of Roseau River waters on both sides of the boundary; (b) will the protective works proposed by Canada have any effect on the United States side of the boundary; and (c) what are the effects if any of flood control works and resultant flood flows on the Roseau and Red Rivers? The Board will complete the investigation assigned in the terms of the Reference that was partially reported in the Commission's Interim Report of June 8, 1929 and the 48-16 MISCELLANEOUS CIVIL WORKS December 5, 1949 report with respect to the diversion of Pine Creek, a tributary of the Roseau River. Members for fiscal year. The Board consists of four members. For Canada: Mr. W. B. Thomson, Director , PFRA, Department of Regional Economic Expansion, Regina, Saskatchewan, Canadian Section Chairman; and Mr. T. E. Weber, Director General, Water Resources Branch, Manitoba Department of Mines, Resources and Environemental Management, Winnipeg, Manitoba. For the United States: the District Engineer, U. S. Army Engineer District, St. Paul, Minn., U. S. Section Chairman; and Mr. E. R. Gere, Director, Division of Waters, Soils and Minerals, Minnesota Department of Natural Resources, St. Paul, Minn. Col. E. E. Cox was the St. Paul District Engineer during the year. The Board formed a Task Force on October 21, 1971 to prepare a program of studies and to coordinate and conduct studies assigned by the Board. The Task Force consisted of Mr. N. Mudry, Chief of Planning, Water Resources Branch, Manitoba Department of Mines, Resources and Environmental Management; Mr. F. Quinn, Water Planning and Operations Branch, Canada Department of the Environment; Mr. D. G. Retka, Hydrologist, Division of Water Soils and Minerals, Minnesota Department of Natural Resources; and Mr. P. A. Fischer, Assistant Chief, Engineering Division, U. S. Army Engineer District, St. Paul. Operations during fiscal year. The Board met on September 7, 1972, October 4, 1972, March 13, 1973, and April 4, 1973. The Board appeared before the Commission on October 4, 1972 and April 4, 1973. The Task Force met on December 8, 1972, March 6, 1973, and May 30, 1973. Studies outlined in the Plan of Study approved earlier by the Commission were continued. Work included updating of the hydraulic and hydrologic studies for the flood control works in Minnesota and mitigating works in Canada soil surveys in Manitoba inventory and analysis of surface water data, groundwater data, water quality data, forestry inventories, wildlife inventories, fishery surveys, and recreation assessments. Attitude and perception surveys, including a public involvement program, were started in the Manitoba portion of the basin. An Interim Report on effects of the flood control works proposed in Minnesota on flood flows at the border plus details and costs of mitigating works in Canada required to offset effects of increased flow at the border was completed and submitted to the Commission on March 16, 1973. The Interim Report indicates that flood flows will increase at the boundary from 2,160 cfs to 2,730 cfs for a flood having a 20-percent probability of annual occurrence as a result of the Corp's proposed project in Minnesota. In the range of the 1-percent flood, flows will increase from 4,700 cfs to 5,100 cfs with differences becoming progressively smaller as total flow increases. At flood flows of 7,200 cfs or larger, the effect is minor. The estimated cost of the mitigating work in Canada is $1,518,000. The mitigating works would consist of a diversion channel from the Roseau River to the Red River midway between Dominion City and the Red River, an enlarged channel from the exit of the Gardenton Floodway to the Provinical Trunk Highway 59 bridge, and rehabilitation of the Gardenton Floodway. On April 24, 1973, a letter was sent from the Office, Chief of Engineers to the Department of State requesting that preliminary negotiations be undertaken with the Canadian Department of External Affairs toward reaching a final agreement between the two countries for the transfer of U. S. funds for the mitigating works. It was agreed at the April 1973 meeting with the Commision that copies of the Board's interim report would be furnished to the U. S. Department of State and the Canadian Department of External Affairs for use in negotiations. 2S. INTERNATIONAL KOOTENAY LAKE BOARD OF CONTROL Constitution and duties. The Board was established November 11, 1938 to secure compliance with the provisions of the Orders of Approval of the International Joint Commission dated November 11, 1938, and August 5, 1949, relating to the construction and operation of control works by the Consolidated Mining and Smelting Company, of Canada, Ltd. (Cominco), through the West Kootenay Power and Light Co., Ltd., in and adjacent to the channel of the Kootenay River regulation of the levels of Kootenay Lake in the Province of British Columbia and the operation of the Duck Lake outlet control works by the Creston Valley Wildlife Management Authority, in accordance with the Orders of the Commission dated October 12, 1950, April 3, 1956, and March 31, 1970. Members of the Board for fiscal year. For Canada: Mr. G. Tofte, District Engineer, Water Survey of Canada, Department of the Environment, Vancouver, British Columbia, Chairman, Canadian Section and Mr. A. F.

Army Engineer District, Seattle, Wash., Chairman, U. S. Section and Mr. H. K. Hall, District Chief, Water Resources Division, U. S. Geological Survey, Boise, Idaho. Operations during fiscal year. No meetings of the Board were held during the fiscal year. An annual report was submitted to the Commission. 48-17 REPORT OF THE CHIEF OF ENGINEERS, U.S. ARMY 1973 The Board reported that Cominco operated the control works at Corra Linn Dam under the provision of the Order of the Commission dated November 11, 1938. Kootenay Lake rose to a maximum of 3.9 feet in early May 1972 above the computed natural level, dimmished to zero on 30 November, and rose to 2.4 feet on 31 December. Storage at Duncan Dam and at Libby Dam affected the inflow to Kootenay Lake. The levels of Kootenay Lake under 1929 outlet conditions (called natural conditions) were computed without including the storage changes in Duncan Lake or in Libby Reservoir. Stream flow measurements have been made regularly throughout the year by the U. S. Geological Survey and by the Water Survey of Canada. The West Kootenay Power and Light Company has continued to supply the Board and other agencies involved with the complete records of the regulation of Kootenay Lake as affected by the operation of the Corra Linn Dam and power plant. The control works at the outlet of Duck Lake were operated during the year in accordance with the Orders of the Commission. The gates of the Duck Lake outlet works were opened on Sep - tember 9, 1972 when the elevation of Duck Lake was 1,745.20 feet and the elevation of Kootenay Lake at Queens Bay was 1,744.24 feet. The gates were kept open for the remainder of the year. A staff gauge was maintained in Duck Lake and gauge readings were obtained by the Creston Valley Wildlife Management Authority during the year in accordance with the Order of the Commission dated March 31, 1970. Storage at Libby Dam will greatly reduce the inflow of Kootenay Lake during the storage filling period (and reduce the peak flow) an will moderately increase the inflow to Kootenay Lake during the storage drawdown periods. British Columbia Hydro and Power Authority have just let a contract for the construction of a hydro-electric generating station on the Kootenay River at Lower Bonnin gton pool. Waters of the Kootenay River will be fed to this plant via a canal running from Corra Linn Forebay. Most of the excavation for the canal has been carried out but with saddle dams to be built and lining required, the canal project is about one-half completed. Generation of power is scheduled for September 1975. 2T. INTERNATIONAL OSOYOOS LAKE BOARD OF CONTROL Constitution and duties. A special board of engineers was constituted to insure compliance with the provision of the Order of Approval of the International Joint Commission dated July 12, 1943, directing investigation of high water conditions on the Okanogan River and studies of the relationship between certain obstructions, complained of in an application of the State of Washington, and the levels of Osoyoos Lake. The Board was enlarged from two of four members by an Order of the Commission dated September 12, 1946, to carry out the provision of the Order relative to the alternation and operation of the Zosel Dam. Members of the Board for fiscal year. For Canada: Mr. G. Tofte, District Engineer, Water Survey of Canada, Department of the Environment, Vancouver, British Columbia, Chairman, Canadian Section, and Mr. W. W. Ryan, District Director, until February 1973 and Mr. J. N. Stevens, Manager, Marine and Civil Engineering, thereafter, both of the Department of Public Works, Vancouver, British, Columbia; and for the United States Mr. L. B. Laird, District Chief, Water Resources Division, U. S. Geological Survey, Tacoma, Wash., Chairman, U. S. Section and the District Engineer, U. S. Army Engineer District, Seattle, Washington. Col. H. L. Sargent, Jr. was District Engineer until July 1972 and Col. W. O. Bachus thereafter. Operations during fiscal year. The Board did not meet during the year. No reports or complaints of flood damage in the vicinity of Osoyoos Lake were received by the Board during the year. An annual report was submitted to the Commission. The maximum elevation of Osoyoos Lake was 917.11 feet on June 2 and 3, 1972, the highest in 44 years of record. The Okanogan River at Oroville peaked at 3,730 cfs on June 14, 1972, the highest in 30 years of record. The Similkameen River near Nighthawk peaked at 45,800 cfs on June 1, 1972, the highest in 61 years of record. Backwater from the Similkameen River affected the Okanogan River below Zosel Dam from May 12 to July 20. Exclusive of the high flow period in the Similkameen River, the daily elevations of Zosel Mill Pond were between 911.00 and 911.30 feet for a total of seventeen days in September and October. The record high stages in Osoyoos Lake were caused by a combination of extreme high flows in the Similkameen and Okanogan Rivers. With the approval of the Board, Mr. Ralph Zosel removed material from a bar in the Okanogan River channel above Zosel Dam, and filled in a small section of channel on his property along the right bank of the river. In reviewing this request the Board members found that the requested changes would probably increase the conveyance of the channel and should not have any detrimental influence relative to either high or low flows. 2U. INTERNATIONAL SKAGIT RIVER BOARD OF CONTROL Constitution and duties. The International Joint Commission approved on January 27, 1942 48-18 MISCELLANEOUS CIVIL WORKS an application by the City of Seattle Wash., to raise Ross Dam to impound Skagit River water to a maximum elevation 1725 feet above mean sea level at the international boundary, subject to a binding agreement being entered into between the City o Seattle and the Government of British Columbia providing for indemnitying British Columbia for any injury that may be sustained by reason of the city's operations on the Skagit River. The Order of Approval provided for the a pointment of the Board of Control, to consist of two members, one from the engineering services of Canada and the other from the United States, but the Commission did not establish the Board at that time. On January 10, 1967, the Province of British Columbia and the City of Seattle entered into a 99-year agreement permitting flooding of the lands of the Skagit River watershed in British Columbia up to elevation 1725 feet, North American Datum (1972) as established by the Geodetic Survey of Canada. In a July 31, 1967 directive to the designated Board members the Commission stated that the Board was established on April 4, 1967. Members of the Board for fiscal year. Mr. G. Tofte, District Engineer, Water Survey of Canada, Department of the Environment, Vancouver, British Columbia, for Canada, and the District Engineer, U. S. Army Engineer District, Seattle, Washington for the Unite States. Colonel H. L. Sargent, Jr., until July 1972 and Colonel W. O. Bac us thereafter, was the Seattle District Engineer. Operations during the fiscal year. The water surface at the international boundary reached a maximum elevation of 1603.59 feet on August 28, 1972, as recorded by the gaging station, Skagit River, at the international boundary near Hope. The Board did not meet formally or visit the area during the year. An annual report was submitted to the Commission. 2V. COLUMBIA RIVER TREATY ENTITIES Constitution and duties.
